English to Spanish: Alaska 911 General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Cinema, Film, TV, Drama
Source text - English Brian: One thing about Alaska is, is if you have a mishap off the road system, you're gonna have to deal with it yourself. The wind, and the snow, and the cold, all those, if you're not ready for it, can compound into—become a problem.
Dan: The winters are challenging when you're in the backcountry of Alaska. The weather is unforgiving. You have to be prepared for any and everything.
Mike: You have to be able to make plans for the things that can come up and bite you. Every year, we lose people. Every year. Mother Nature decides how many it's gonna take and it takes that many.
Vivian: Scott and I planned a trip out to our winter camp and we always take our little dog, Elvis. It's 30 miles out the Denali Highway.
[ graphic ] The Denali Highway is a mostly gravel, little-used road between the cities of Paxson and Cantwell. It is closed to automobiles from October to May each year.
Vivian: We got there and everything was great. We had our little warm stoves, lit them all up, and had some dinner, and the first night went just perfectly great. The second day, he leaves in the morning to extend his trapline a little bit, and I expect him home to camp, and he just doesn't show up.
[ graphic ] A trapline is a route or series of animal traps set up by a hunter.
Vivian: And I'm like, "This has never happened before.” In all the years we've done it, 30 plus years, there's never been a time that Scott hasn't come back. So, I was beside myself. I was so nervous about Scott not being there, I couldn't sleep. I just kind of sat around that night thinking about what I should do and wondering what was wrong with Scott. The day before he had told me, he said, "I have so many trails back there, don't even come looking for me. Stay in camp.” Well, I couldn't do that. I had to go look for him. So, I grab Elvis and I head off down the trail. It's about five miles from our camp to the Denali Highway and then 30 more miles home. And I was right in between camp and the Denali Highway. No one's really out there. All of a sudden, my machine just makes this very large grinding noise and stops. The motor is running, but the track is not moving. And I was like, "I'm in big trouble.” This is what all Alaskans worry about is being alone, breaking down, and what's your recourse? What are you gonna do? No one's going to be looking for me. I had told the kids we'd go home the night of the 10th. And this was the morning of the 8th. You know, I just made the biggest mistake of my life. I better figure out what to do here. I tried to start the trees on fire but they wouldn't catch. I wasn't gonna get any heat there so I just decided, I'm gonna go on my machine, sit with all my blankets around me, put Elvis in my coat, and just start my machine every 15, 20 minutes and warm up over the motor.
[ graphic ] The temperature that evening dropped to minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
Vivian: That night, I was wide awake because I had read so many times, "Don't sleep in the cold because you're gonna fall asleep and freeze.” That was my big push not to freeze to death. And I was scared, I was worried about Scott. It was just horrible. I made it through the first night and I said to Elvis in the morning "Oh, my gosh. We made it through the night, Elvis.” And I realized I was thirsty. I was melting snow in my hand but it wasn't enough. I was getting dehydrated. The second night was much colder than the first night.
[ graphic ] Hypothermia can occur in less than 10 minutes. The body freezes in gradual stages, leading to unconsciousness and death.
Vivian: It was hard for me to stay warm. The wind had started up and I was thinking, "This doesn't look good, Viv.” That night, a lot of stuff went through my mind. I didn't think I was gonna make it. I'm wet and the temperature is plummeting. I was like, "You can't cry because you're getting dehydrated.” I kept thinking, "I don't want my children to lose both their parents.” The morning comes. I couldn't feel the heat at all anymore because the temp had dropped so far. The cold felt like an actual entity that was after me. And I had to try to keep it away. So, I couldn't stay warm over the motor anymore. I was freezing to death and I knew it. And Elvis jumps up and he starts barking frantically. And so I turn and I look and I see something jumping through the snow. And at first, I thought it's caribou, then I kept looking and I realize that they were wolves and they were coming toward us. I actually said to Elvis out loud, "This is it, Elvis. We cannot make it through this."

Vivian: It was the most horrific thing I could ever think of happening.
[ graphic ] VIVIAN MAYO Denali Resident
Vivian: They've proceeded to surround me and I started banging on what was left of my machine and I was screaming and cursing at the wolves. I think I just kind of fell off the edge of sanity. Then I noticed about eight feet away from me, a wolf had crawled up.
[ graphic ] Wolves begin eating their prey immediately, while they are still alive.
Vivian: We'll use these big tub sleds. So I figured I would get under the sled. I just right then said, "This is it. This is the end of my life."
[ graphic ] While Vivian was under the sled, her dog Elvis hid inside a hole in the ground and remained completely silent.
Vivian: I could hear them walking around the sled. And I was thinking about my kids, knowing I was gonna die. I was hanging on by my fingernails. I felt like, "You held on so long, Viv. Hang on a little longer.” But I was so tired. It was hard for me to pull that up. All of a sudden, I hear a snow machine and I thought, "It can't be real. Maybe I'm imagining it.” And I heard him say, "It's over here,” you know. So they pulled the sled off of me and it was my son, Kevin. He grabbed me up and he said, "Mom, mom, you're alive,” you know. He said, "Where's dad?” And I said, "He's been missing for days. I don't know where he is.” And so we both cried. It was just— it was horrible. They called Air National Guard. They were gonna look for Scott. I thought he had probably—he had a heart attack because he's had some problems in the past.
[ graphic ] Extreme cold can put your health at risk by making your heart work harder and faster to keep your body warm.
Vivian: When I sent Kevin out to the helicopter, I said, "I don't even wanna know.” I thought they were gonna be bringing back a body. Kevin comes running back in and he said, "Mom, Dad's alive.” I just said, "He is one tough son of a [bleep]”
[ graphic ] SCOTT MAYO Vivian’s Husband
Scott : I thought I was only gonna be gone maybe a couple hours. All those trails through the woods, I know them very well. But I got carried away what I was doing and I went further, and further, and further away. I wasn't paying attention. And I ran out of gas. I had a tarp so I made a makeshift tent out of it. I had built a fire and, you know, I was fine. It was a matter of just trying to stay as warm, I'd get up, run around and get more branches off trees to throw in the fire, and just try to stay warm.
[ graphic ] That night the temperature was minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
Scott Fourth night, it started getting down. I thought, "Man, this is it. I can't stay warm.” I was so cold that I was in the fire. That's how desperate I was. I was laying in the fire, I was burning up some of my pants. I was just about the end of my rope. Then I heard this airplane coming up the valley, it was one of those C-130s, then it was low.
[ graphic ] The Lockheed HC-130 is an extended-range, search and rescue aircraft used by the U.S. Coast Guard, Air Force and Air National Guard.
Scott: And I thought, "Man, they're looking for me.” I couldn't believe it. Fifteen minutes later, here comes this helicopter that landed right down there next to me. The paramedics jumped out and they asked me, it was funny, "Are you the dad?” I go, "What?" I said, "I don't care who I am. Let's get out of here.” Once we flew back to the camp, Kevin, he hugged me. He couldn't believe I was still alive. He said, "Mom's been attacked by wolves.” I said, "Holy crap.” I said, "You're kidding me.” He said, “No, she's all right though.” They brought Viv out.
Vivian: And I was like, "Oh, wow. You know, I thought you were dead, man."
Translation - Spanish BRIAN: Uno de los peligros de Alaska es que si tienes un contratiempo con tu navegador, tienes que arreglártelas solo. El viento, la nieve, el frío, todo eso, si no sabes gestionarlo, puede convertirse en un problema.
DAN: El invierno puede ser muy duro si vives en el campo de Alaska. El clima no perdona. Tienes que estar preparado para cualquier cosa y más.
MIKE: Tienes que ser capaz de improvisar un plan para lo que pueda surgir. Todos los años perdemos gente. Todos los años. La Madre Naturaleza elige a cuántos se va a llevar y así lo hace.
INSERTO ALASKA ANCHORAGE CANTWELL AUTOPISTA DE DENALI
INSERTO VIVIAN MAYO RESIDENTE EN DENALI
VIVIAN: Scott [ESCÓT] y yo habíamos planeado un viaje al campamento de invierno, y siempre nos llevamos a nuestro perrito, Elvis. Está a unos 50 kilómetros de la autopista de Denali.
VIVIAN: Llegamos al campamento y todo era genial. Encendimos nuestras estufas y cenamos frente al calor. Fue una noche perfecta. Al segundo día, deja el campamento por la mañana para extender un poco la línea de trampas. Yo me quedo en el campamento, esperándole. Pero nunca apareció.
INSERTO: LA AUTOPISTA DE DENALI ES UNA CARRETERA DE POCO USO, CASI TODO GRAVA, Y LAS CIUDADES DE PAXSON Y CANTWELL. TODOS LOS AÑOS DE OCTUBRE A MAYO PERMANECE CERRADA PARA AUTOMÓVILES.
INSERTO UNA LÍNEA DE TRAMPAS ES UNA SERIE DE TRAMPAS PARA ANIMALES QUE COLOCA EL CAZADOR.
VIVIAN: Pienso: “Esto no ha pasado nunca”. En 30 años que llevamos haciéndolo, más de 30, ni una vez Scott [ESCÓT] ha dejado de regresar. Estaba tan nerviosa por él que no podía dormir. Aquella noche me dediqué a dar vueltas pensando en qué debía hacer y en qué estado estaría Scott [ESCÓT]. Justo el día anterior me había dicho: “Tengo muchísimas trampas puestas. No salgas a por mí, quédate en el campamento”. Bueno, pues no pude. Tenía que salir a buscarle. Cogí a Elvis y salí al bosque. Hay 8 km desde nuestro campamento hasta la autopista de Delani, y 50 más hasta casa. Yo estaba justo entre el campamento y la autopista. No había ni un alma alrededor. De repente, mi vehículo empezó a chirriar durante un rato, hasta que se paró.
VIVIAN: El motor funcionaba pero el circuito estaba inmóvil. Ahí me di cuenta de que estaba en apuros. El mayor miedo de todo alasqueño es quedarse solo, tener una crisis y, ¿qué recursos tienes? ¿Qué vas a hacer? Nadie me estaría buscando todavía, porque yo había avisado a mis hijos de que estaríamos en casa el 10, y esto ocurrió la mañana del 8. El mayor error de mi vida. Pensé: “más me vale salir de esta”. Intenté prender fuego a los árboles pero no funcionó. Tampoco iba a ser capaz de que entrar en calor ahí, así que decidí subirme a mi vehículo y rodearme de todas las mantas que tenía, cubrí a Elvis con mi abrigo y encendía el motor cada 15 o 20 minutos para que me diera calor.
INSERTO: AQUELLA NOCHE LA TEMPERATURA EN ALASKA DESCENDIÓ HASTA LOS -6º C.
VIVIAN: Me mantuve toda la noche despierta, pensando en todas las veces que había leído “no te duermas en la nieve. Puedes morir congelada”. Era el empujón que necesitaba para no morir de frío. Estaba aterrada, pensando en Scott [ESCÓT]. Fue horrible. Sobreviví a aquella noche, y le dije a Elvis por la mañana, “Madre mía, Elvis, hemos sobrevivido”. Entonces me di cuenta de la sed que tenía. Me puse a derretir nieve en las manos, pero no era suficiente, me estaba deshidratando.
VIVIAN: La segunda noche hizo mucho más frio que la primera. Fue muy difícil mantenerme caliente. Cuando empezó a soplar el viento, pensé: “esto pinta mal, Viv ”. Se me pasaba de todo por la cabeza. No creía que fuera a sobrevivir. Mojada, y con la temperatura descendiendo en picado. Solo pensaba “si lloras, te deshidratas. No querrás que tus hijos pierdan a sus dos padres”.
INSERTO: LA HIPOTERMIA PUEDE DARSE EN MENOS DE 10 MINUTOS. EL CUERPO SE CONGELA DE FORMA GRADUAL, DESENCADENANDO LA INCONSCIENCIA Y LA MUERTE.
VIVIAN: Llegó la mañana. Como la temperatura había bajado tanto no sentía nada de calor. Sentía que el frío era un ente real y que me perseguía. Y yo tenía que intentar mantenerlo alejado. El motor ya no me calentaba. Me estaba muriendo de frío y lo sabía. De repente, Elvis se levanta y empieza a ladrar como loco. Me giré y vi que algo saltaba en la nieve. Al principio pensé que eran alces, pero al fijarme más me di cuenta de que eran lobos, y venían directos hacia nosotros. De hecho, en ese momento le dije a Elvis: “ya está, Elvis. No podremos sobrevivir a esto”.
VIVIAN: Fue la experiencia más terrorífica que te puedas imaginar.
INSERTO: VIVIAN MAYO DENALI RESIDENT
VIVIAN: A estas alturas ya me tienen rodeada. Empecé a intentar activar el motor, mientras gritaba e insultaba a los lobos. Había llegado a un punto que estaba perdiendo el juicio. Fue cuando reparé en que uno de los lobos estaba a 2 metros de mí.
INSERTO: LOS LOBOS SE COMEN A SU PRESA DE INMEDIATO, MIENTRAS AÚN ESTÁ VIVA.
VIVIAN: Los trineos que usamos son muy amplios, así que me escondí debajo. En ese momento pensé: “Ya está. Es el fin de mi vida”.
INSERTO: MIENTRAS VIVIAN ESTABA BAJO EL TRINEO, SU PERRO ELVIS SE HABÍA ESCONDIDO EN UN AGUJERO EN EL SUELO Y EN SILENCIO
VIVIAN: Les escuchaba rondar el trineo. No paraba de pensar en mis hijos, sabía que iba a morir. Mi vida pendía de un hilo. Me dije: “has aguantado mucho, Viv. Solo un poco más”. Pero además estaba cansada, me costaba soportar el peso del trineo. De repente, escucho una moto de nieve, y pienso: “no puede ser real. Me lo estoy imaginando”. Les escucho decir: “Está aquí”. Me quitaron el trineo de encima y ahí estaba mi hijo, Kevin [KÉVIN]. Me levantó y dijo: “Mamá, estás viva. ¿Dónde está papá?”. Yo respondí: “lleva días desaparecido. No sé dónde está”. Y nos pusimos a llorar los dos. Yo estaba… Fue horrible. Llamaron a La Guardia Nacional del Aire para buscar a Scott [ESCÓT]. Yo no paraba de pensar que a lo mejor… Temía que hubiera sufrido un infarto. Ya tuvo problemas con eso en el pasado.
INSERTO EL FRÍO EXTREMO PUEDE PONER EN TU RIESGO TU SALUD, PROVOCANDO QUE EL LATA MÁS FUERTE Y MÁS RÁPIDO PARA CALENTAR EL CUERPO.
VIVIAN: Cuando Kevin [KÉVIN] se subió en el helicóptero le dije que no quería saber nada. Estaba segura de que volverían con un cadáver. Él volvió corriendo hacia mí y dijo: “Mamá, papá está vivo”, y yo respondí: “Es fuerte, el muy [bip]”.
INSERTO SCOTT MAYO MARIDO DE VIVIAN
SCOTT: Creí que no me llevaría más de un par de horas. Conozco muy bien los caminos del bosque, pero me dejé llevar, perdí noción de dónde estaba y me adentré más y más. Me distraje, y me quedé sin gasolina. Por suerte tenía una lona con la que me pude hacer una tienda de campaña. Me hice también una hoguera. Iba bien. Era imprescindible mantenerme caliente, así que me levantaba, daba una vuelta, cogía más ramas para el fuego, y así estuve.
INSERTO AQUELLA NOCHE LA TEMPERATURA ERA DE -6º C.
SCOTT: Cuarta noche. Empecé a enfriarme. Pensé: “Dios, es el fin. No me puedo calentar”. Tenía tanto frío que estaba dentro de la hoguera, así de desesperado estaba, llegando incluso a quemar mis pantalones. Estaba tocando fondo. Pero entonces escuché un aeroplano aparecer por el valle, un C-130, y estaba volando bajo.
INSERTO: EL LOCKHEED HC-130 ES UN AVIÓN DE ALTO RANGO, QUE USA LA AVIACIÓN DE RESCATE AMERICANA, LOS GUARDA COSTAS Y LA GUARDIA NACIONAL.
SCOTT: Me dije: “me están buscando a mí”. No me lo creía. 15 minutos después aterrizó un helicóptero justo al lado de donde yo estaba. Los paramédicos salieron y me preguntaron: “¿eres el padre?”. Y yo: “¿Cómo? Qué más da quién sea. Lárguemonos de aquí”. Una vez de vuelta en el campamento, mi hijo Kevin [KÉVIN] me abrazó, no se creía que estuviera vivo. Me dijo: “Los lobos han atacado a mamá”. “No me jodas. Tienes que estar de broma”, pensé. Luego me dijo: “pero está bien”. Y trajeron a Viv.
VIVIAN: Mi reacción fue: “Vaya. Pensé que habrías muerto”.
English to Spanish: PERFECT WAVE General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Cinema, Film, TV, Drama
Source text - English IAN: I was standing there looking upon a beam, he was surrounded by light, not a shadow or touch of darkness. I’ve just come from a realm, which was complete darkness. There was no light here.
I asked God how on Earth can I be standing here? Surely if he knows my name, he knows my thought before I could speak, everything must be transferred before him.
I’ve made a mistake; I’m not a good man. They obviously beamed the wrong person up.
I began to move back from the light, feeling very ashamed, very self-conscious, and began moving back towards the darkness to judge myself back into health.
As I began moving back, waves of light emanated off his presence.
The first wave of light touched me; I felt unconditional love and acceptance.
The waves, my whole hands, my fingers tingled as I felt this liquid light into the core of my being and I felt pure love.
I began to weep. I thought, men don’t cry. More tears began to come. Wave after wave of love. For God, surely you know my sins, you can’t love me.
More but perhaps he doesn’t know. I should tell him now, no use coming in and having to kick me out later.
So, I stood there, I said, God, I cursed you, broke your commandments, taken drugs, and began speaking all my sins that I slept around...
As I continued to speak the worst of my sins, his love got so strong that I ran out about being able to tell him the things that I had done wrong.
It was as though every sin had been completely forgiven and he spoke to me, he said everything that you had ever committed was forgiven in that ambulance when you prayed the Lord’s prayer.
Translation - Spanish Yo estaba quieto mirando un haz de luz. Él estaba totalmente iluminado, ni una sombra o atisbo de oscuridad. Llegué directo desde un reino oscuro. No encontraba la luz.
Le pregunté: ¿Cómo es que estoy aquí? Si Él conoce mi nombre, si conoce mis pensamientos antes de emitir palabra, debe de saberlo todo.
Había cometido errores; no soy un buen hombre. Obviamente habían llamado a los cielos a la persona equivocada.
Empecé a alejarme de la luz, sintiendo vergüenza, muy cohibido, y me aproximé a la oscuridad, para juzgarme a mi mismo, en mi cuerpo.
Según me movía, olas de luz emanaban de su ser. Cuando la primera oleada de luz me alcanzó, sentí amor incondicional y aceptación.
La luz, en mis mamos, en mis dedos estremecidos mientras la ola recorría mi cuerpo... hasta invadirme el amor más puro.
Me puse a llorar. Pensé, los hombres no lloran, pero llegaron más lágrimas. Olas y olas de amor. Señor, tú conoces mis pecados, no puedes amarme.
O quizás no los conozca. Debo hablar ahora; no quiero entrar y que me echen de una patada.
Me quedé quieto, y dije: “Dios, he blasfemado, incumplido tus mandamientos, he tomado drogas...”
Le conté todos los pecados que se me ocurrían, pero su amor solo se fortalecía, y yo me quedé sin más pecados que confesar.
Sentí cómo todos mis pecados fueron perdonados, entonces me dijo: “Todos los errores que has cometido fueron perdonados en la ambulacia, cuando rezaste el Padrenuestro”.
