A ROCK climber has been rescued after falling down a cliff in the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney.
The 23-year-old local and his friend arrived at Centennial Glen, near Blackheath, to go rock climbing about 9.30am (AEDT) on Sunday.
Before they started, the man fell about 10 metres down a cliff face and landed on a ledge.
His friend and another climber abseiled to him before contacting emergency services.
After arriving on the scene, police rescue and paramedics abseiled to the man and started treating him for serious head and internal injuries.
A helicopter was dispatched to the area but was unable to assist due to poor weather.
A complicated roping system was then set up to retrieve the injured climber safely.
About 5.15pm, he was carried out of the bush by a team of emergency service workers and taken by ambulance to Westmead Hospital.
His injuries are not considered life threatening, police said.
