SARGENT’S PURCHASE — On Wednesday afternoon, rescuers from around the state collaborated to help a rock climber who had fallen and badly injured himself in Huntington Ravine on Mount Washington.
Shortly after 1 p.m., N.H. Fish and Game heard from hikers who witnessed a man free fall approximately 60 feet in the area of Pinnacle Buttress. As they worked to gather more information, a 911 call came in from rock climbers who made their way over to the fallen man after being alerted by the hikers. The climbers provided first aid, first-hand information and a reliable location for where the man was located. It also was confirmed that the fallen man was suffering from multiple injuries, some of which could be potentially life threatening.
