Summary
Six climbers attempted a dangerous cliff ascent at Davenport Beach, setting up a rope that snapped mid-climb, sending three plummeting 30-40 feet to the beach while the other three were stranded halfway up. Emergency crews from Cal Fire, Santa Cruz Fire, State Parks, AMR, and the Sheriff’s Office raced to the scene, using ropes and a ladder truck to rescue all six—rushing one to the hospital in critical condition and two others with moderate injuries. Firefighters worked through thick fog to reach the stranded climbers, unable to use air support. Cal Fire issued a stark warning: coastal cliffs are unstable and climbing them is extremely dangerous—don’t even think about it.
