For the uninformed:  A Litter basket is a stretcher designed to be used where there are obstacles to movement or other hazards: for example, in confined spaces, on slopes, in wooded terrain. Typically it is shaped to accommodate an adult in a
face up position
and it is used in
search and rescue
operations. The person is strapped into the basket, making safe evacuation possible.
