Hanging Out

Just in time, rope rescue training prepared Del Mar lifeguards to work with Del Mar firefighters and help a man caught in a crevice while trying to take what he thought was a trail down to the beach from Del Mar Canyon Preserve AKA Anderson Canyon.

The 40-hour rope rescue training was sponsored by the Del Mar Foundation and Del Mar Rotary. The multi-agency team was able to secure and safely lower the man to the beach.
