CHELAN COUNTY, Wash. — The Chelan County Sheriff’s Office says crews conducted rescues at Sauer Mountain and Colchuck Lake on Sunday.
The first rescue happened along the Sauer Mountain Trail after a hiker reported a serious knee injury and rescuers used a forest road to get to their group.
The hiker was treated and is expected to recover, the sheriff’s office said.
On Sunday evening, a lost hiking group, including adults and children, sent a 911 text near Colchuck Lake.
After a few hours, the rescuers found the group using location data and navigating challenging terrain at night.
The group made it back safely, CCSO said in a release.
