Trail worker out of intensive care
The Daily Inter Lake | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 12 years, 10 months AGO
The Glacier National Park trail crew member who was badly injured in a fall from the Highline Trail last week has been released from the intensive care unit at Kalispell Regional Medical Center.
The condition of Morgan Bell, 31, improved enough for her to be taken out of the ICU Sunday afternoon, said Denise Germann, the park’s spokeswoman.
Bell was working on a five-member team clearing snow from sections of the popular Highline Trail.
She was returning to the trailhead on July 3 when she slipped on a snowbank and slid about 200 feet before falling 12 feet onto Going-to-the-Sun Road.
Her injuries were extensive enough to be airlifted to the Kalispell hospital, where she was in stable condition in the intensive care unit most of last week.
