The Skamania County Sheriff’s Office Thursday afternoon helped a man who was unable to descend from a perch above Dog Creek Falls.  Dispatchers received a call from a hiking companion that 35-year-old Wade Nelson of Portland had climbed up to the top of the falls located near Washington Highway 14 milepost 56, but only the caller had made it down.  A search & rescue Deputy responded to the area along with rope teams from Skamania County EMS and manpower from Fire District #1.  Due to the location and the technical ropes required, the Clark County Technical Rescue Team was dispatched as well.  Nelson was helped down and reunited with his hiking partner two-and-a-half hours later.  No injuries were reported.  Skamania County Undersheriff Pat Bond noted there is no designated trail system to climb Dog Creek Falls.
