Fox News Digital Releases September 4 Weekly News Quiz With 2 Featured Storylines

Q: What harrowing details emerged after a missing hiker miraculously survived six grueling days in the unforgiving Wyoming wilderness?

The hiker, Missouri deputy attorney general Shaun Mackelprang, survived after summiting Wyoming’s Gannett Peak and then becoming lost in severe weather on the way down. Reports said he signed the summit register, confirming he reached the 13,804-foot peak, but heavy storms moved in during his descent. Family members and rescuers said he became disoriented, likely after taking shelter from intense rain, lightning and even reported snow near the mountain. Instead of returning to his campsite, he wandered toward Scott Lake, an area that apparently resembled the lake where he had pitched his tent. When rescuers found him six days later in the Wind River Range, he was dehydrated, disoriented, bruised, exhausted and sore, but alive. He had reportedly been able to drink water using a filter, which may have helped keep him alive in the remote backcountry. The search that led to his rescue was extensive, using ground crews, drones, a helicopter and information from other hikers. He was airlifted out near Scott Lake and later thanked the rescuers from his hospital bed, calling their actions selfless and lifesaving.
