GFFR Rope Rescue on Eagle Mtn. - March 3 2012

A dog became stranded on a ledge on Eagle Mtn about 40 feet above the railway grade on Friday afternoon. It spent the night there, and members of Grand Forks Fire Rescue initiated a rope rescue on Saturday in which one member rappelled down to the ledge and was able to carry the dog while being lowered to the rail grade by the rest of the rope team.

See the story on Global TV BC and in the Grand Forks Gazette.
