A climber fell 15 meters at “The Mine,” a popular climbing spot in Western Cape, and required rescue. The Wilderness Search and Rescue (WSAR) team used a stretcher wheel to transport the patient safely over challenging terrain. Rock climbing accounts for only 3% of annual rescues by WSAR, emphasizing the importance of learning proper climbing techniques and safety checks before embarking on this sport. WSAR is a crucial part of the outdoor adventure community, providing a beacon of hope for those in need.
