+@ti2d,
Actually, there are probably going to more of these type of rescues around Holy Jim. Last year several agencies got together and worked on the gravel/dirt road to the Holy Jim TH. It is now drive able in a passenger car.
The road was a big deterrent for the casual hiker trying to get to the TH. Although that didn't stop a few from trying and getting their car high-centered or stuck in a deep mud hole.
Glad to hear they are alive, but if we ever get the full story, it will probably consist of several small/medium level bad decisions made over the course of the day, and not just one monumental big knuckle-headed goof.
