(PARK COUNTY, Colo.) — Two teens were rescued by multiple agencies and a K9 after becoming lost without water and wandering the Pike San Isabel National Forest for several hours near the Park/Teller County line on Monday, July 7.

According to the Park County Sheriff’s Office (PCSO), around 6 p.m. on Monday, dispatchers received an S.O.S. call from a 17-year-old hiker who reported that he and his friend, also 17, had become separated while hiking and were lost. The boy reported that neither hiker had any food or water and that they were not dressed for the elements.

PCSO said multiple agencies were dispatched to search for the teens, including Park County Search and Rescue (SAR), a human tracker from the Fairplay Police Department, the Hartsel Fire Department’s drone team, members from the Lake George Fire Department, Southern Park County Fire Protection District, and Teller County Search and Rescue.

Rescuers located the teens’ car near County Road 77 and Forest Service Road 210, just outside the Town of Lake George. One of Park County’s K9s, K9 Rip, picked up a scent from the car’s door handle and began tracking.

Around 9:10 p.m., over three hours after the initial distress call, one of the missing hikers was located with the help of the drone team and K9 Rip. The second hiker was found 8 miles away on another trail by SAR teams that had been deployed opposite from the K9 and drone teams. PCSO said the second hiker was suffering from dehydration and exhaustion.

“We are incredibly grateful to all agencies involved for their swift response, teamwork, and dedication to bringing these two young individuals home safely,” PCSO said on social media.

Both teens were reunited with their families and are expected to make a full recovery, PCSO said.
