A day hike on Roan Mountain turned into the rescue of a lone hiker suffering from an apparent heart attack. Three of us started out at Carver's Gap on the Appalachian Trail headed east toward Big Grassy Bald and Cornelius Rex Peak. It was just past the Rex Peak marker that our day changed. Glad we could help a fellow hiker.
It was a team effort. Other hikers, Bakersville Rescue, Mountain States Wings Air Rescue, Dispatchers, and friends via cell phone.
Such a beautiful video! Thanks to all who participated in saving this hiker's life. Trail Angels of the highest order!
