Mt. Marcy rescue: Hiker with hip injury carried down snowy trail by Forest Rangers and others at night Updated May 18, 2021; State Forest Rangers in recent weeks were kept busy rescuing injured or lost hikers, along with fighting wildfires and doing prescribed burns. In one instance, a woman who suffered a hip injury after slipping on ice on top of Mt. Marcy in the Adirondacks had to be carried down the mountain trail in a litter during the night. The trail had two to three feet of snow and ice in some places. One of the rescuers exhibited possible cardiac symptoms and also had to be “closely monitored.”
