"10 calls in two days, with a total of 13 since August 5th."

A big thank you to each and every one of you from Backcountry BC.

“A group of 17 hikers needed to be rescued from Widgeon Lake, high in Burke-Pinecone Provincial Park. They had flown in on a chartered floatplane, but bad weather was keeping them from getting out.”
