Paddleboarders rescued along San Rafael River over the weekend
EMERY COUNTY, Utah () — Four paddleboarders were safely rescued after getting lost along the San Rafael River over the weekend. According to the Emery County Sheriff's Office, on June 7, dispatch received a call that four people who were paddleboarding down the San Rafael River had not yet returned home. The Emery County Sheriff Search and Rescue Team was paged and prepared to go to the area. While they were preparing to respond, a 911 text was received by dispatch from three of the paddleboarders. They said that they were together along the river, but had lost the fourth member of their group down the river. In response, dispatch requested that a Department of Public Safety helicopter come assist in the search. New Jersey couple rescued in Garfield County flash flood speaks out One sheriff's deputy, Deputy Michael VanWagoner, responded to the area near Swinging Bridge, where he found the missing paddleboarder. She had managed to get off the river near the campground, and campers were helping to care for her. The helicopter was cancelled. The other three members of the party were still lost on the river, and the search and rescue team arrived around midnight, walking along the river on foot until they located the lost paddleboarders. They guided them to the Swinging Bridge area, where they were reunited with their fourth member. The Emery County Sheriff's Office said everyone was 'safe and injury free.' They expressed that they are 'grateful for outcomes like this,' and it was a 'great learning experience for all involved.'
