Salt Lake Man Rescued In Wayne County
(KUTV) A 55-year-old Salt Lake man was hiking with two coworkers in Alcatraz Canyon, 15 miles northeast of Hanksville on Thursday afternoon, when apparently slipped and became wedged in a narrow slot canyon.
According to the Wayne County Sheriff's Office his coworkers worked for several hours trying to free the man, but were unsuccessful and had to go for help.
Search and Rescue crews weren't able to reach the victim on Friday, but resumed the search Saturday morning.
A Utah Highway Patrol helicopter spotted the man at around 9:30 a.m. Officials say the man was uninjured but seemed to be suffering from hypothermia.
