An online community of bear-watchers helped lead rescuers to a hiker in distress after the man approached a camera at Katmai National Park.
moderator posted: “Thanks viewers for letting us know. Explore is aware and able to get in touch with Katmai. They are also reviewing the footage.”“The park sent a search and rescue team to find the hiker, who was caught in windy and rainy conditions with poor visibility,” Hernandez said in an email. “Park rangers found the hiker a few hours later, unharmed, and brought the hiker back to safety.”
“Aaaand I’m crying because I’m so relieved. I first noticed that hiker about 3.5 hrs ago. Those rangers made it up there fast!” one commenter posted. As in the rest of the park, there is no cell service on Dumpling Mountain. And where the hiker was lost, there wasn’t any shelter, either. Around the mountain camera there aren’t any trees, just alpine tundra. Fortunately, that made it easier to spot the camera’s large tower, solar panels, radio antennae and wind turbine.
Whether the hiker got the message, he stayed near the camera until rangers arrived and was able to walk down on his own.
