Paraglider accident on the Boise Front June 12 2011-5111

Boise Front - Boise Idaho

Just seconds after this image was taken this para-glider crashed
and had to be Airevac'd out. He floated in behind a ridge and out of
my view when the accident happened. I had been down in the canyon
below where you see him in this image, photographing a waterfall
minutes before and took this picture as a series, after hiking back
up to my truck. While driving out I passed all the emergency vehicles
and later heard about this incident.
I hope the guy is okay?
