Episode 29: Struck on the Summit

Two men from New York are visiting Colorado, hiking up a 14,000 foot summit when they loose the trail. They call the rescue team to help guide them back to the trail. When they find the trail and reach the summit, the rescue team thinks all is well until screams are heard over the phone. Join us in the survival story of two hikers who get hit by lighting and the extraordinary efforts of the rescue team to race against the clock, fighting a storm, to rescue the hikers. Then follow along for some lighting safety tips and some information about lightning that's probably good to know if you go outside.
