For those of you who were out in the boulders Saturday, you may have heard a helicopter circling the Stawamus Chief Grand Wall. According to Squamish SAR, a base jumper got his chute caught on a tree after a bad opening that resulted him flying into the Chief. Full Story below.

(NEWS 1130) — The Stawamus Chief was the scene of a dramatic rescue before nightfall Saturday.

A base jumper had lost control and ended up stuck, dangling by his equipment on a steep mountainside.

Search and Rescue crews were called out just before 5:00 p.m. to the Chief’s west face, also known as the Grand Wall.

John Willcox with Squamish SAR says the rescue was a race with the setting sun but fortunately, the man had a cellphone, which made it easier to communicate with him.

“He said that he had launched off the top as a base jumper. He had a little difficulty with his lines and it kind of spun him around he came very close and then actually collided with the face of the chief. His canopy collapsed and he slid down the wall. And then finally his shoot got hung up on some trees. So he was partly suspended by his shoot. And then also, was able to hold on to some roots of some large trees there,” Willcox explains.
