As a member of SAR Bridal Veil keeps us pretty busy. Anywhere from people being up too high without any lights after dark, people getting ledged out, to ice climbers that fall. We had a family hiking up and their son decided to run up the trail. He fell, tripped or slipped I don't know but, on that narrow trail he tumbled 30-40 feet down. We got him down and he took a helicopter flight to the hospy. Accidents of all kinds. I heard a story from another member that someone, years ago, was using a garden hose up there to descend.
I've always thought about rappelling down BVF. I suppose I better get on it to become familiar with what's up there.
