Who: 24-year-old Michael Brick, 24-year-old Matthew Schweizer and 22-year-old Mark Johnson
Where: Three Sisters area, Oregon
Their mistake: Looks like they just got lost
What happened: In two separate incidents, three hikers required rescue in the Three Sisters area.
In the first incident, two hikers were reported lost in the Tam MacArthur Rim area (pictured above). Rescuers were able to locate the men by tracking their cell phone signal. Yet while rescuers were attempting to locate the men, they continued to hike to find a way out. Rescuers eventually lost their signal and had to send in searchers on horses to locate them. The dingbats were eventually located and escorted to safety.
In another incident, a solo hiker was reported overdue near the Morraine Lake and Green Lake area. Searchers in off-road vehicles, on foot and horseback scoured the area. The man was able to hike out on his own and was located by searchers at 9:45 p.m. Authorities said the man got lost twice on his way back to his car. He wasn’t hurt and in good shape.
