Columba Valley Search and Rescue strengthens operations
While mountain biking the Johnson Trail in 2020, a child plunged off the edge of Toby Creek Canyon. Although she tumbled 150 feet down the steep and gravelly canyon wall, Columbia Valley Search and Rescue (CVSAR) was able to deploy a complex rope system and lift her to safety.
CVSAR gets calls to the canyon at least once a year, while also responding to land, lake and stream emergencies from all over the Columbia Valley. The registered charity and non-profit organization averages 30-40 volunteers who work diligently beside other first responders (primarily the RCMP and BC Ambulance) to offer specialized rope, mountain, avalanche and swift water rescue services.
