Firefighters aid injured hiker on Mt. Finlayson: "Langford firefighters broke out ropes, a basket stretcher and an all-terrain vehicle Friday to rescue a man who had fallen while hiking on Mount Finlayson.
Langford Assistant Chief Scott Davidson said 13 firefighters responded to the call from Goldstream Park, which came in at 11: 30 a.m.
A 73-year-old man had fallen about five metres down the south face of Mount Finlayson, suffering a cut to his head.
Due to rain and sleet, the basket stretcher carrying the man was lowered by rope rather than carried."
