Hikers Lost On Pacific Crest Trail Found By Rescuers

A pair of teenage hikers who became lost on the Pacific Crest Trail late last week were found by rescuers in Skamania County.  The Skamania County Sheriff’s Office says emergency dispatchers received a 9-1-1 call Thursday night from 19-year-old Wyatt Corn in which he said he and his 19-year-old friend were lost on the trail just north of North Bonneville after hiking to Aldrich Butte earlier in the day.  Skamania County Search and Rescue responded to the area, and after three hours were able to find the two lost hikers and bring them to safety.  The Skamania County Sheriff’s Office is reminding all outdoor recreationists to be prepared for their outing, including possessing the Ten Essentials, letting someone know about your trip plans, and ensuring your adventure is within your skill levels.
