If I remember correctly the injured hiker was about half way up and got on the wrong trail ,was headed for the kind of north slope. Easy to do if you are not paying attention. About 6 miles up and 6 miles down 3 to 4 miles from the cog railroad or the pikes peak Highway.
Other than the top or bottom Pikes Peak is wilderness with a few trails, I know of three people who disappeared there
The marine radio was all they had , before cell phones
I was not the victim , for a in shape team member about a 4 hr hike
