A long fall that sparked profound thoughts.
About
A trauma nurse is airlifted to her own hospital after falling 60 feet in a canyon, destroying the life she once knew and uncovering a life-changing perspective.
Nichole’s search for happiness led her to the thrill of canyoneering, but a 60-foot fall shattered everything she knew.
Rescued but left with devastating injuries, she fought to reclaim her old life, pushing through pain in pursuit of joy that always stayed out of reach.
Only when she could no longer keep fighting did she finally pause, and in that stillness, she discovered that happiness was never something to chase, it was something to allow.

support SeaRch and rescue
A large portion of Search and Rescue chapters in the United States and beyond are built almost entirely of volunteers. Many assume this is a service paid for by tax dollars, and are unaware of the sacrifice, training, and heroic acts it takes to be come a member of these teams. Where the Rope Ends is partnering with volunteer organizations around the country to use as an awareness, fundraising, and recruitment tool.
