PINKHAM NOTCH, N.H. — New Hampshire Fish and Game officers have come to the aid of three hikers who stopped on a Mount Washington trail when it got too dark.
The hikers from Maine were guided down Tuckerman’s Ravine Trail on Monday night after calling 911.
They were identified as 70-year-old John Reinsboroug and his wife, 67-year-old Elizabeth Reinsboroug, both of Readfield, and their friend, 71-year-old Nancy Russell of Kents Hill.
The Fish and Game Department said the hikers were not carrying any lights.
Next time, bring a headlamp.
Again, underestimating the activity and overestimating their skill level.
You hit the nail on the head.
At first I was going to make fun of them for getting stuck on an easy trail like Tux’s but then I saw their ages and I’d say they made the rght call.
Keep on truckin’, Gramps.
