This story appeared in Outside, and is a good example of how an emergency beacon/messaging device can be very helpful in the backcountry.


And while we applaud the mountain biking team that executed this rescue, there was one line that made us smile, stating the obvious:


"She was in her underwear, without shoes, and had both her shirt and shorts tied around her feet to protect them. There were visible scratches and cuts all over her legs and body. Her feet were raw and bleeding. Something didn’t look right."


Something certainly didn't look right!
