Memorial Day Canyon Rescue
And the Intelligence Award goes to...
The entrance to the Olympus trail was covered with police,
canyon rescue, and news crews. I asked one of the rescuers
what was going on - she told me that a couple of women were
hiking the trail, started going down a different trail, then
got lost. So they just picked up the cell-phone and called
canyon rescue.
They had to block off Wasatch Blvd. to allow the helicopter
to land. And when the propellers stopped turning, two women
came skipping out like they just got off the rollercoaster
ride at Lagoon.
So for the record, if you ever get lost on a mountain, remember
this survival tip: GO DOWN!
(These people don't get the Intelligence Award however,
it goes to the group of geniuses who decided to dispose of
their beer bottles by smashing them all over the Prudential
- Way to go!)
Made for TV movie : "I'm Too Tired to Hike Down the Mountain."
I think it cost them in the $30,000-60,000 range to be lazy.
Don't worry their husbands will pay for it, they always do.
