Family, including four children, rescued from bush near Port Alberni
- On Sunday, May 25, 2025, a group consisting of two grown-ups and four small children became lost near the Hole in the Wall trail by Port Alberni and needed to be rescued.
- While navigating through creeks and thick woodland, the family accidentally strayed from the designated path in difficult terrain.
- The Alberni Valley Rescue Squad deployed a rope team and used a newly formed drone team for aerial reconnaissance to locate and assist the group.
- Amelie Duquette, spokesperson for Alberni Valley Rescue Squad, explained that due to difficult terrain and the fact that the group included children between the ages of three and eight, a rope team was sent in to establish safety lines throughout the wooded area.
- The rescue highlighted the need for hikers to stay on marked trails and be prepared with supplies, as the area’s network of trails can confuse even experienced visitors.
