It’s been a year since the tragic drowning of Nick Hopwood in the Kitimat River.
Now Kitimat Search & Rescue along with two local fishing guides have partnered on a number of Kitimat River Safety Initiatives.
Two of the key components are, changing the current fishing culture and educating boaters and fisherman on the Kitimat to wear their personal flotation devices at all times. Along with educating the public on proper fishing wader wearing and safety.
Kitimat Search & Rescue would like to thank Ron Wakita of Reliable Guide and Charters and Tracy Hittel of Kitimat Lodge and Steelhead Heaven for their leadership and partnering with them.
