Hope these directionally challenged individuals never go for a hike in Tioga county! They would never be found!

Their mistake was getting their map from the Internet. The only thing less accurate than a google map would be something from Microsoft.

They did do the smart thing. By calling early in the evening they prevented a search in the middle of the night which certainly would have been more difficult. Good to hear everyone is ok. Nice work on the part of both parties.

THAT IS THE RULE OF THUMB WHEN YOU GET LOST LIKE THAT. STAY PUT. DO NOT ROAM. THAT WAS BEFORE THERE WERE EVEN ANYTHING LIKE CELL PHONES.
