Yesterday evening, we were tasked to assist Arrowsmith Ground Search and Rescue (GSAR) in extracting an injured civilian off of Mount Arrowsmith, B.C.

#SearchAndRescue
The successful rescue included a CC-115 Buffalo Fixed-Wing Search and Rescue Aircraft that illuminated the area with flares while a CH-149 Cormorant Search and Rescue Helicopter hoisted the patient, their two companions, and the Search and Rescue technicians.
Due to the terrain, #SearchAndRescue Technicians were required to setup a rope system to retrieve the 3 people approx 250 ft down from the hoisting location

The late night mission was challenging and, with all stakeholders working together, the outcome was thankfully successful.
