Kent Harrison SAR locate lost fishermen along Chehalis River Friday
KENT — Search and rescue groups from Kent and Chilliwack have successfully found some missing fishermen Friday night (Oct. 24).
According to a social media post by Kent Harrison SAR, the group was paged out at around 5 p.m. to two lost fishermen on the Chehalis River Delta.
With the men’s coordinates at hand, the SAR deployed a ground team to get through to them from the west side of the delta.
After two unsuccessful attempts, additional swiftwater members from Kent Harrison and Chilliwack crossed the river from the east to find a new route, rafting across and traversing dense brush to locate the two individuals, with Chilliwack SAR’s drone confirming their location.
