The man and his family spent the night in Kalalau Valley. The man was flown by rescue helicopter Saturday morning to Princeville Airport, where he declined additional assistance.
A rescue helicopter later Saturday morning picked up a 51-year-old San Diego woman injured as she slid down a 10-foot embankment into a stream.
She was flown to a parking lot and transported to Wilcox Hospital.
On Saturday afternoon, a 51-year-old woman from Tempe, Arizona, injured her left ankle while bicycling along Kuilau Trail.
Kapaa firefighters used a litter with a wheel to carry the woman off the trail.
