Late afternoon, sun setting, Thursday, on a track with occasional people, coming down reaching 9700,' cold, windy 'n nasty through the shade, comes a hallooo-ing voice: Search and Rescue calling for a lost woman, God Bless her. Not the altitude or weather for that to have a good outcome..... Thousands of acres to search. One's only chance is to carry a garmin
I hope myself to get time to push the button, so they can come get the dogs.
I hope they found her. One night outside should be ok. Will they send the helicopters to search ?
It turns out Thursday it was reported - she's been missing a week now since last Monday...... As for being out a night and surviving - only with a space blanket bag. The Labs would've found her if she was within 150 yards of the trail - nothing.
Choppers, horsemen, motorcycles, hikers teams.... Some get lost on purpose, but she signed the trail book, so unlikely this time. God Bless her.
