Rocky Mountain National Park (CO)
Injured Hiker Rescued From Lost Lake Area
Rangers received a call yesterday afternoon from the International Emergency Response Coordination Center, reporting that they’d received an emergency activation signal from a SPOT device from a point near Lost Lake in the northeast section of the park. Two rangers, one a park medic, flew to the location in a Grand Teton NP helicopter that is in the park to support operations on the Cow Creek Fire. They found a 27-year-old man who’d suffered a broken leg after sliding 30 yards down a snowfield above the lake. He was flown out and taken by ambulance to Estes Park Medical Center.
