Injured Climber Rescued From Mt. Hood

(Timberline Lodge, OR) -- An injured climber on Mt. Hood was rescued over the weekend, during an 11-hour operation. The 43-year-old woman was descending the popular South Side route when she was hit by falling ice, near the summit, Saturday afternoon, causing her to fall. AMR's Reach and Treat team and Portland Mountain Rescue used a complex set of rope systems to get the woman to a snowfield where a Timberline snowcat picked her up. She arrived at the parking lot at about 3 a.m. Sunday and was transported to a hospital.
