PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- A hiker suffering a leg injury was rescued along a trail in the Columbia River Gorge on Wednesday night, fire officials said.
Fire crews and paramedics found the hiker about 1 mile up the trail at Wahkeena Falls, Corbett Fire tweeted Thursday morning. The hiker was carried out and taken to a hospital with what officials described as non-life-threatening injuries.
This rescue happened the same day a dead body was found at the bottom of a cliff near Angel’s Rest Trail in Multnomah County.
Last week, Corbett Fire announced a woman hiking fell to her death at Multnomah Falls.
