Interesting story about a rescue effort involving many people in ADKs https://www.adirondackexplorer.org/stories/saddleback-rescue

Excerpt from the article:
The rescue took about thirty-seven hours to complete, starting with the emergency call placed by the injured hiker’s friend at about noon on Saturday, February 3, and ending at 1 a.m. Monday when he was put in an ambulance near the Garden parking area in Keene Valley.
 
That is amongst the worse spots to conduct an SAR in the northeast on a traditional summer hiking trail. Glad it had a good outcome.
