Comments
A bad decision and I got slapped far less than I could have. Sz2 likely ran on facets though we didn't get to the bed surface, that was the least of my concerns. Incoming storm with a 3 hr weather window closing fast. Chilliwack SAR and Valley Helicopters cannot be thanked anywhere near enough. Rescue required as my shoulder was dislocated for 9 hrs total. Eventually reduced in the OR in Chilliwack. Otherwise no other injuries.
