RedactedNarrative: On August 12, 2015 at approx. 1745 hours while on duty within Glen Canyon National Recreation area within the district of Utah. Dispatch reported an emergency medical call in the Escalante River. Dispatch informed Ranger and I that a male patient had broken his leg and that he was being transported towards Bullfrog in a "Green Rinker open motor boat." The call had come in from a third party via marine band channel 16 and a text message to an associated person in Bullfrog. Ranger and I intercepted the patient vessel near buoy 90. Ranger completed a medical evaluation of the patient while I assisted with transferring the patient into our NPS vessel for transport.
  	
  The operator of the vessel told me that the patient had been wakeboarding in the Escalante River. OPERATOR said that he was operating with other passengers with the patient in tow on a wakeboard. OPERATOR told me that the water was flat with little to no winds, it was mid-day and there were no other hazards. OPERATOR told me that the patient was jumping on the wakeboard when he fell. They turned around to pick up the patient who exclaimed that "My leg snapped." (see Witness statements). There was no collision with any other vessels, property, or other objects. There was no damage to the vessel. The party transported the patient towards Bullfrog where they met up with us near buoy 90. We transported the patient to the Bullfrog Launch Ramp, where he was transferred to the Bullfrog Ambulance. Ranger Nelson and McCaffrey transported the patient in the ambulance to the Bullfrog Clinic.
