The fossilized remains of a duck-billed dinosaur (encased in plaster) await transport to the Utah Museum of Natural History. This near-complete skeletal specimen was collected by the Utah Museum of Natural History in Kane County, Utah and transported from the excavation site using a Utah Army National Guard UH-60 Black Hawk Helicopter. The Utah National Guard trains on aerial hoist missions to maintain the proficiency needed to operate in areas inaccessible by traditional means. This capability supports search and rescue and disaster response efforts, while also enabling Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) missions that provide essential services to communities and strengthen military readiness. Regular training ensures aircrews and ground personnel remain ready whenever they are called upon. (Utah National Guard photo by Sgt. 1st Class Tim Beery)
