Creston Fire Rescue’s Deputy Chief says a coordinated effort led to a well-executed weekend rescue at Canyon Bridge.
18-members from two local fire departments performed a rope rescue to extract a man who had fallen about 75-feet down the emabankment.
Jared Riel ran point on the operation.
He says it took about two hours total and didn’t pose any major obstacles.
Riel says it’s a challenging area to perform a rope rescue as far as securing access and anchor points.
