The routine arrives with confidence.
Hiking in New Hampshire without proper gear? No problem. Paying for the rescue mission afterwards? Priceless. The four hikers were charged for their rescue after getting stranded on Franconia Ridge. They started their trek at 3:30 P.M. and got stuck at 9 P.M. with no headlamps. Because, why prepare when you can just wing it? The state’s rescue efforts cost $250,817 in 2025, so these hikers are in for a treat.
