Authorities say a Seattle paraglider was rescued after getting caught in a gust of wind and crashing into a California hillside.

Violeta Jimenez had extensive injuries but was able to dial 911 on Saturday evening after a crash into the hillside of the San Gabriel Mountains and give deputies her GPS location from her cellphone.

Because of her injuries and the remote location, a Sheriff’s helicopter was used for a hoist rescue. The crew lowered a medic 165 feet to the ground to give Jimenez first aid before she was lifted into the helicopter for transport to a trauma center.
