Two Found by Rescuers on B.C. Lakeshore in Sea to Sky Region After Plane ‘Submerged’

The JRCC found both occupants on the lakeshore and said the aircraft likely went into the water, with no further crash details available.

  • Two people were rescued early Tuesday from the shore of Seagram Lake in the Squamish River Valley after their Cessna crashed into the remote mountain lake.
  • The Joint Rescue Coordination Centre Victoria received a call about the overdue aircraft around 11 p.m. Monday, prompting Canadian Armed Forces public affairs officer Capt. Pedram Mohyeddin to confirm the search initiation.
  • Rescuers tasked a CH-149 Cormorant helicopter and a CC-295 Kingfisher aircraft from 19 Wing Comox to locate the plane, discovering survivors roughly 25 kilometres southwest of Squamish.
  • Sea to Sky RCMP said the occupants were taken to hospital with 'serious injuries' after being transported from Squamish Airport to Vancouver International Airport.
  • Because the aircraft is submerged in the lake, The Transportation Safety Board is not deploying a team to investigate, though it remains aware of the accident.
