In this still frame made from video provided by the Snohomish County Sheriff's office Monday, a Search and Rescue volunteer works to rescue a 13-year-old boy, who had been wading in the Wallace River when he lost his footing late Saturday afternoon at Wallace Falls State Park, Wash. Officials released a video Monday of the middle-of-the-night rescue just above a 270-foot waterfall. The video, shot by a volunteer rescuer, shows the boy on a narrow, sloping rock shelf just above Wallace Falls, a popular hiking attraction northeast of Seattle. One roped-up rescuer cautiously makes his way to the boy using an aluminum ladder as a foothold, and then guides him up a rock wall to safety.
