On February 8, Columbia Valley Search and Rescue (CVSAR) responded to a SOS device activation near Paradise Ridge.

A person sustained a lower body injury while snowmobiling in the area. With the help of Coldstream Helicopters in Invermere, RK Heli Skiing and Panorama Mountain Resort Ski Patrol members, the patient was packaged and transported to the Invermere and District Hospital for further care.

“Remember to @bcadvsmart by being prepared when heading out but we’re here to help when you need it. Stay safe,” CVSAR noted on social media.
