Ridge Meadows SAR was requested by BCAS to respond to Golden Ears Park for a report of an injured hiker. The subject's friend had flagged down a Ridge Meadows Recycling truck and reported that his friend was injured in the bush. Rick, team manager for RMSAR, contacted Lorne at RM Recycling by phone. After speaking with his driver, it was determined that the subject was already in the care of BCAS. Rick then contacted dispatch at BCAS who confirmed that they did have the subject. The rest of the team was stood down prior to assembling. |

On Sunday July 26thm 2009 RMSAR received a call from the RCMP to search for two hikers who had called in on their cellphone stating that they were lost in Malcolm Knapp Research Forest. The subjects had lost the trail and were in the bush near a cliff. RCMP Air 5 was in the area and was able to respond to assist. We were able to give them an approximate location and they were then able to locate the subjects. Air 5 returned to base and picked up two SAR members and dropped them in above the subjects. The SAR members then hiked to the subjects and escorted them to the helicopter where they were flown out to the search base. Both subjects were fine and had sustained no injuries. |
