Bryce here:
I have a buddy on search and rescue. Apparently a few days back a guy got
lost...in the morning...at Elk lake.
About dusk he had found his way to a phone. He was at McKinsey Bridge! He had
gone 27 miles cross country in one day. Yuck!
All for lack of a $6.00 map and a little compass or a cell phone (and some
common sense).
--Bryce
Note: Cascade Lakes Highway borders the east side Elk Lake about 400 yards distant! This guy was really lost! --Webmeister
WARNING - *DISCLAIMER!*
Mountain climbing has inherent dangers that can, only in part, be mitigated
