A BASE jumper was left dangling from her parachute on the face of the Stawamus Chief in Squamish , B.C. , on Wednesday .

Crews determined they couldn't perform a helicopter rescue due to the risk the downwash could blow the jumper from her precarious position.

A large crew of team members lowered one of their colleagues down the rock face to the victim, where they were able to get her out of her parachute.

The pair were then lowered to the ground, where paramedics carried her to a waiting ambulance.
