According to the Coconino County Sheriff's Office, the 28-year-old Brooklyn man called 911 just before 7 p.m. on March 2 saying that he was lost while hiking north of Flagstaff on Humphrey's Trail in the San Francisco Peaks.

I bet he couldn't wait to get out of the Wild, Wild West and back home to Brooklyn where the only thing he has to worry about is getting mugged by 'youths' or getting pushed in front of a subway train.
Twice in two days.... He had better be receiving an invoice from Arizona Search and Rescue. Any idea how much money those two non-emergency calls cost? Especially a helicopter. Emergencies I get, but pure negligence and ignorance is something else
ReplyDeleteI think Humphrey's is hiked in summer when there's no snow, not so much in winter.
ReplyDeleteMust be upbringing because I would feel highly embarrassed to have the need to "call for rescue" unless I was bleeding out.
ReplyDeleteYeah, no shit. Turn in your fucking man card.
DeleteEver heard of a fuking compass? Fuking download onto your phone with Google maps showing your location - he called 911.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely he has a bill to pay - being stupid is expensive.

Smart guy, knowing how to operate a phone and all. If he was any smarter he might have even realized he had reception and could have just opened up Waze.
