Calgary Man, 21, Identified After Fatal Fall In B.C. National Park

The Canadian Press, 19 Jul, 2016 01:20 PM
    FIELD, B.C. — The coroner's service in British Columbia has identified a 21-year-old Calgary man who died after a fall in Yoho National Park.
     
    It says Ryan James McIntosh was one of a group of four who set up camp on Thursday to hike up the nearby Secretary-Treasurer Peak, about 20 kilometres east of Golden.
     
    The coroner's service says McIntosh and one other person reached the summit, but on the descent at about 4 p.m. he lost his footing and fell more 200 metres down a steep embankment.
     
    A Canadian Forces search and rescue helicopter, which was flying through the area, responded when one of the man's companions activated an emergency locator beacon.
