A U.S. Coast Guard aircrew from Port Angeles rescued a man late Saturday night from Olympic National Park near the mouth of the Hoh River.
The 44-year-old hiker sustained injuries from drift logs caused by the rising tide along the coast.
Two members of the hiker’s party assisted him before the aircrew arrived.
A rescue swimmer was lowered to hoist the injured man to a helicopter.
The aircrew brought the hiker to the Coast Guard Air Station, where he was transferred to Olympic Medical Center.
The patient’s current condition is unknown.
