A hiker was rescued Sunday after spending two days stranded on a Wyoming rock face.
Allen Arrington, 49, expected to be able to climb out the top of a straight-walled canyon at the Cabin Creek drainage, reports The Missoulian. However, after climbing hundreds of feet, Arrington became “rim rocked” and could not descend safely.
