That's a stroke of luck! Heck, instead of taking a PSK I'll just look for one if needed! grin

“The hikers used the supplies to stay warm until rescue crews spotted them from the air using night vision“

I have had a few Coasties as patients and they have told me if you can make it till night and they know where to look, they’ll find you.

NVGs, FLIR and the fusion googles that combine the two are truly wizard eyes.
