[at-l] Another Hiker Down!

[Tom McGinnis]

Yeah, but at least that's a *real* rescue, not a cell-phone-generated "Hey! Why look inside for [self-] rescue, when I've got technology [holds self-own high in triumph] RIGHT HERE!"

(And, although I've read the description of the steepish Alum Cave Trail a gazillion times, I have never hiked it! Sheeesh!)

News in the Johnson City, TN, paper this morning says that GSMNP rangers rescued a man on Saturday evening who had fallen 70' down off the Alum Cave Trail on Mount LeConte.  Sigh.  He was with a group, and the group called in for his rescue.
