LINDON, Utah — Four adults and a 10-month-old baby were rescued Saturday night after they became stranded while hiking in Dry Canyon.
Officials with the Utah County Sheriff Search and Rescue said they received a call around 5:45 p.m. that the group “got off course and found themselves in difficult and snowy terrain near Big Baldy.”
Search and rescue team members were then deployed to rescue the stranded hikers.
“SAR team members found the group tired, cold and struggling with the elements,” read a Facebook post from the agency.
LifeFlight was also called out to help with the extraction, according to UCSSAR officials.
Everyone was off the mountain within approximately three hours.
