75-year-old paraglider OK after Cowichan cliffside crash rescue

A 75-year-old paraglider is expected to survive after crashing down a cliff on Mount Prevost on Friday, thanks to a coordinated multi-agency rescue and the actions of a fellow glider who reached the injured man before rescuers.
The Chemainus resident had launched from one of the main jump points on the west side of the mountain, clipped a tree, and spiralled roughly 400 feet down the rock face, according to Cowichan Search and Rescue (CSAR) officials.
CSAR was called out at about 1:15 p.m., said
