Great work to the Border Patrol team and other volunteers for rescuing the two hikers. We hope they are recovering well from their injuries. This is a reminder to make sure you are well prepared before hiking out by packing a bag full of essentials for the hike, wearing appropriate clothing, and letting someone know where you will be heading. As always, please be safe out there, everyone!
