On Monday, Sept. 11, Penticton Fire Services called Penticton Search and Rescue for assistance in extricating an injured climber from Skaha Bluffs.

Search and Rescue manager Kelvin Hall, in consultation with Penticton Fire, determined that the quickest and safest way was to initiate a helicopter extraction.

Penticton Fire packaged the injured climber, and Search and Rescue used the helicopter long line to take the climber to an awaiting ambulance. The coordinated response between Penticton Fire, Penticton Search and Rescue, Eclipse Helicopters and B.C. Ambulance was instrumental in getting the climber to the emergency department for treatment.
