selkirk Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Not sure who the parties were but we ran into Kititas SAR at the Ingalls Trailhead. Apparently, there was a hard ass Ukranian lady who broke an arm on Stuart and needed some assistance crossing the river. There was also a separate accident on Ingalls, maybe the east ridge. Resulting in a broken hip. We heard the helo come in but due to the cloud layer couldn't see anything beyond a rope length. I hope everyone involved is improving and am hoping for good outcomes. And thanks again to the SAR folks out there busting their ass for us . Quote
selkirk Posted June 18, 2012 Author Posted June 18, 2012 The words of the SAR folks. I guess they had run into her before and she, and the group she was with were strong, hardy climbers. Lots of respect. Quote
