A rescue team from Grand County Emergency Medical Services had to perform technical rescue after a man in his 60s became stranded on top of a hoodoo at Pucker Pass, Long Canyon. The man, who hasn't been named, injured his ankle leaping across what the rescuers called a "sharp, catastrophic drop".
The team used ropes and a ladder to span the 5ft gap between the hoodoo and the canyon rim, and a medical technician crawled across wearing a helmet and harness, and carrying her first aid kit.
