Great work to the Alpine Rescue Teams for rescuing the hiker as we also commend the hiker for signaling the rescue team to find him but using the source of light. It's essential to make sure to wear the right appropriate clothing this winter season. If you plan on going to the mountains this winter, please layer and bundle up. Wear the right shoes and most importantly, please wear socks. We hope the hiker is recovering well and as always, please be safe out there!
