Fish and Game Officers Rescues Two People in Separate Searches

The N.H. Fish and Game Officers have rescued two people in separate searches. One Rhode Island man was rescued after he got lost on the Skookumchuck Trail and went the wrong direction from the summit of Mt. Lafayette. In the second search that took place on Saturday, N.H. Fish and Game rescued a Massachusetts man who was stranded at Kilkenny Ridge Trail and was unprepared due to the snowy conditions. The man will most likely be fined.

"Basically, we have to prove that the person was negligent when they went hiking," said Heidi Murphy with the New Hampshire Fish and Game. Read more here

Excellent work, as we give a shout-out to N.H. Fish and Game for their hard work in rescuing the two men. We hope this is a lesson to both of them and everyone else that it is absolutely important to make sure you are prepared when planning your hiking trip. Make sure you pack an essentials bag, you have mapped out your destination, and you let someone know where you are heading. As the summer approaches, please be mindful and be safe out there!
