A decade of long line rescue
In 2005 I was selected with another member of Coquitlam SAR to be a part of North Shore Rescue’s HETS (long line rescue) team.
This led to being selected to be a part of the 2010 Olympics Long Line Rescue team, and the creation of Coquitlam SAR’s own Long Line Rescue group, which became active last year,
I can’t believe it’s been 10 years already.
We’re only standing here because of the great work of those who pioneered this rescue technique.
Imagine how long it would have taken and the cost of the 3 rescues on crown mtn last weekend if it wasn’t for long line rescue! Game changer!
