Late yesterday afternoon Lions Bay SAR was called out to locate and extract two lost and ill equipped hikers in the Harvey Basin area. The hikers had missed a ...turn off to the Lions Trail and continued on up the Harvey Basin trail until they eventually lost that trail in the snow covered Alder. Fortunately the hikers were able to get cell coverage and were able to relay their rough location to our SAR manager. The subjects were luckily spotted from the air and two teams were quickly dropped off on a nearby ridge. The teams made their way to the subjects over slick uneven terrain covered by roughly 20 cms of new snow. The subjects were found shivering, wearing cotton clothing that had become frozen solid. The subjects were given a complete change of clothes, including proper hiking boots, and were warmed with heat vests and tea. Some time thereafter it was determined that the subjects were capable of safely hiking out with the field teams as Talon Helicopters had returned to YVR due to darkness. After a roughly three hour hike, the 6 LBSAR members and 2 subjects made it out of the field around 10:00pm. These two men were very appreciative and apologetic when rescued. We are all guilty of mistakes and lapses in judgement and we hope that this post is used as an opportunity for all people enjoying the outdoors to at least give a second thought to the equipment that they carry with them and the planning that they do before embarking on a trip. To learn more about proper trip planning and what gear to carry, we recommend that everyone visits www.adventuresmart.ca

Tomorrow is the day!

UPDATE: The two hikers have been found alive and well, but very cold and wet. They were located on Grouse near Thunderbird Ridge. Thank you for the shares!
