Accident

An unfortunate accident happened in the Park on Monday. I think some of the news agencies are covering things, so I will see if I can link to one of their stories eventually.



From what I gather, a couple was scrambling around to the left of Quick and Dirty. Apparently a woman fell and was injured. Lisa, the park rescue coordinator, quickly came down from a climb on the hump to participate in the rescue. A helicopter lifted her into the opening at the base of the ice. The injured scrambler was then heli-ed out to the road where an ambulance took her to the hospital. Everything went very quickly and smoothly.

Kudo's to all those who helped out. It is great knowing that the park has so many resources and trained personal on hand. Hopefully the injury will prove to be as minor as con be hoped.
