Apple Watch Saves Skiers After 1000-Foot Fall
The Apple Watch played a crucial role in rescuing two injured skiers who fell approximately 1,000 feet down a mountain near Steven's Pass in Washington. The Chelan County Sheriff's Office received an SOS alert from the Apple Watch, which led to the deployment of the King County Sheriff's Air Support Unit. The helicopter team used infrared vision to locate the group of skiers and lowered a rescuer to provide initial treatment before transporting them to safety.
