• Coast Guard Rescues Hiker On Devil's Slide Trail (aero-news.net) — A Coast Guard helicopter crew airlifted a 26-year-old hiker with a dislocated ankle from Pacifica’s Devil’s Slide Trail on April 19, then transferred him to San Mateo County EMS at the trailhead. The incident is a reminder that this spectacular but rugged coastal trail, a converted stretch of Highway 1, can quickly turn dangerous despite its paved surface and scenic overlooks.
