Special thanks to the four teams who rescued the four hikers. I know I've said this numerous times in other articles, but it is really important to bring at least 1-2 gallons of water with you when traveling to outdoor recreations such as mountains, for example, especially if the weather gets warmer, always bring water with you. We hope the four hikers are recovering well. Please be safe out there!
