That was so powerful and it's important to see it from their perspective. A lot of people blame the victim in these stories because they put the rescuers at risk but the rescuers don't look at it like that at all. They are there to help people, regardless of how they got into a situation.

He probably forgot and didn’t remember her as he has several clients and they are adults. They could just walk away from the hotel whenever they want to.

If someone comes up to me and tells me to hold their dinner or reservation or whatever and they never show, I’m going to assume they just decided to go somewhere else. Even with her having mentioned the trail that wouldn’t have set off any alarm bells for me personally and like most people I probably would’ve forgotten about her by the time I went home that night. For her to say she “forgives” the clerk like he did something wrong to begin with is kinda wild to me, idk. There’s probably no one on Earth that would think her not showing up to dinner was because she was lost for several days on a trail with a broken leg.

Thanks! This was an adventure that I could relate to as an older woman who often hikes alone. I learned some valuable tips. I tend to take extra layers even on short hikes. I agree that some kind of device to signal your whereabouts in a remote area is necessary. I always let someone know exactly where I am going and don’t take any risky side trips. (Many post-menopausal women have osteopenia and are at risk for breaking a bone if they fall.) I am surprised that a medical person with type 2 diabetes took the risks that she took. I am very glad she made it and that no predators attacked her in her weakened state.

Many years ago a friend brought me home a T-shirt that she bought in a Utah airport. On the back it had a silhouette of a people hiking and the words, "Bring a compass. It's awkward when you have to eat your friends." I haven't watched much of this video yet but it has already reminded me of that shirt. I probably wore that shirt at least once a week until it was so threadbare that I couldn't even wear it around my house anymore.

Thanks for another excellent video. I'm a solo snorkeler (not a recommended practice). I do and take _everything._ I let people know where I'm going and when I expect to be back. I take floatation devices, one of which contains emergency supplies (I take more than one inflatable float - they can fail). I pack a strobe light, diver's signal buoy, knife, whistle, flashlight, strobe, food, water, a mirror, and layers to keep me warm over my 'skins' if I get into trouble. Though I swim in places that are pretty safe, I always check the weather, tides and currents. I've never needed any of the safety gear, but I would never go out without it. Next time I'll have a personal locator beacon.

wow, I think I'd get into trouble just trying to take all that gear! I've gone out every other day for 4 years and no one would notice me not home for weeks or months. I've had my sting ray sting and a chest bite thru my wet suit from a 3' eel, etc but other than the very rare shark, occasional boat, I can't think of anything that would take me out. So..when I was at Assassin's beach (not a soul there) in "mouths of the bull" Panama & there was a "no swimming" sign and reports of tourists drowning in the past week, I went in very carefully and had a lovely swim. I was 66, now 75. "Carefully" to me just means being aware of the risks, taking precautions, and enjoying life before the greatest problem--aging--starts reducing your options!

As a type 2 diabetic you absolutely know how your sugars can fluctuate suddenly. Bringing extra water, sugar gel, and protein snacks is crucial. Relying on verbally telling someone where you are going is foolish. Leave your plans in writing with a person in authority and advise a friend or family member. Definitely come prepared to protect yourself from the elements. And of course a way to contact help is imperative. I am thankful she knew what to do, once she had set out all wrong.

I love the Spot tracker! My husband is a runner and always tells me what trail he will be on. But if it's a longer run like preparing for a marathon or 50 miler, he takes the Spot so he can easily be found if needed. It gave me huge peace of mind when he climbed Mount Kilimanjaro 2 years ago with 5 friends. Every day I could see his progress on the mountain and find the camps where he spent the night. Huge sanity saver!

I grew up in Cape Town. The Mountain Club came to see kids to drum into us never to go on hikes with fewer than 3 people.

What I notice is how often people near or over 60 get in trouble- even the very experienced. Falls and heat exhaustion seem to be the biggest killers. I was out hiking with a group of my friends, and we were all joking about our face plants. And everyone had had at least one. It’s not the scary narrow trail that gets you, but the random piece of bark, or the tree root, or the rock sticking out of an otherwise smooth surface. Our balance is not what it was when we were in our 20’s, and neither are our bones- they break more easily, and don’t heal so quickly. It just takes one moment’s inattention. Please please please carry a satellite beacon, and let someone know where you are going, if you are hiking out alone.

It's really neat to hear about someone who (after messing up) did what they were supposed to - stay in one area (with water), signal in threes, wait for help. *So* many people wander miles away and die alone, only to be found weeks, months, years, or decades later, miles outside of the search radius. A lot of people are criticizing her, and obviously she made a number of mistakes that could have been (should have been?) deadly, but I'm amazed at how well she handled herself after she realized she screwed up, honestly. She did tell someone where she was going, and the time frame under which they could expect her to be back (which is often neglected); she found ways to keep herself warm, and most importantly, she didn't wander off into the middle of nowhere! I've been in a situation where I misjudged the danger - thought it would be a short stroll and didn't realize until I was miles into the woods that this was actually now a hike in the woods in the summer, and I was in jeans, with no water, map, or food, and no one knew where I was or when I was going to return. I knew to take precautions when hiking and I usually take those precautions pretty seriously (hiking in pairs, map, food, water, time frame, destination, etc.), but since I didn't think of this little walk as a hike, I didn't prepare like I should have. I learned how easy it can be to "just check out the next thing" and underestimate the level of danger; before you know it, you're in trouble.

I would have stuck to the original hiking rout plan and write it down and left a copy at the desk and in my room.

She's absolutely responsible and should have been charged with reckless endangerment

Always tell a friend or family member where you are going and when you are planning to be back, and have a check in time set so that if you miss the scheduled check in, they can alert the authorities. She is very lucky to be alive.

I don’t think hotel clerk bears any real responsibility here. It’s madness to expect hotel staff to keep track of every guest’s comings and goings. Victoria took solo day hikes without having a friend or family to do a check in time. That’s on her. Random hotel staff are not babysitters. Don’t expect it of them.

@@ClarkBK67 i thought that too. Even if she told him he was the only one who knew where she was, telling her location only to the clerk would still be risky for her. What if he was ill intentioned and took advantage of the fact he knew that she would be alone in a remote location? What if he had to cross the street for some reason and got ran over by a car before he could tell anyone about her? What if at the moment that she turned her back on him, he received some awful news about a family member and forgot about her in the commotion?

I wonder if Victoria ever thought of having Vulture for dinner-----‐- she could have played dead in wait for The hapless vulture, captured it with her bare hands & stoked the fire! Only if she were desperately hungry, of course....

Gosh dangit. I had this whole big thing typed out and I clicked on the wrong spot and it disappeared. The jist of it was: I spent most of my youth in the mountains of Pennsylvania, where your closest neighbor was a minimum of 10 miles in SOME direction, compasses SOMETIMES worked (I guess the iron content of the rock where we stayed? Either that or too many adults, after too many adult beverages, fell too many times), and the weather was just like people - can't always predict it, won't always like it, but gotta respect it, still gotta work with it. The lesson that was beaten into our heads, as kids, and we packed our gear accordingly, was: "You don't need to survive out here forever. Just long enough for someone to find you, so make it easy for THEM." Of course, what they DIDN'T tell us was that everyone up there was a hunter and spent their entire lives finding things that didn't want to be found, so the only real harm would be doing some damn foolish thing...like jumping off an embankment. Or, you being in the Yukon know, "Everything's covered in snow, but...why is there an empty field in the middle of the forest??" - and that's why you always have one @ssh0l3 in your group that you don't find misfortune falling upon - "I don't know, Jim! Why don't you go check it out for us?" To everyone else: "Get a fire ready. Y'all brought the heat blankets, right? Time for Captain Know-it-All to be brought down a few pegs."

Stories like these are important for educating outdoors folks like me. I always had a daypack with what I thought was enough to survive for 3 days. I strapped it on every time I stepped out of the car, just in case. It was while reading books about lost hikers that I realized my supplies were totally inadequate. The compass I carried, and didn’t know how to use, is really a toy. Thanks for sharing.

What a brave, level headed woman. She made a mistake by going further than she anticipated without thinking she would get into trouble but we've all done things we regret. I would have been sobbing and hyperventilating as soon as I realized I was lost.
