Two Canadian hikers ended up calling 911 for help after battling winter conditions on Mount Washington, New Hampshire officials reported.
The hikers, who were wet and tired, called for rescue after they couldn’t continue in the deep snow at 5:18 p.m. Thursday, May 9, New Hampshire Fish & Game said in a news release.
Three conservation officers met the hikers at 10:10 p.m. and guided them to a road, where they were driven down the mountain, the agency said.
