Typically, the thought of diving into blackberry brush leaves one envisioning scrapes, scabs and stickers. However, for a woman in Clackamas, those thorny vines saved her life.
Wednesday night the woman (cops aren’t releasing her name) went off the steep cliff near the Riverbend Mobile Home Park. But rather than crashing into the swollen Clackamas River, the woman was kept high and dry by some blackberry vines. Apparently, she hit the brush 50-feet down the cliff and was cradled safely until rescuers could rappel down and get her.
An ambulance did take the woman to the hospital just to get checked out but she should be just fine.
