Skamania County Sheriff’s Office search and rescue staff responded to multiple calls for help over the weekend, mostly for lost hikers. On Friday afternoon, the sheriff’s office received word of a hiker lost on Mount St. Helens. The Washington State Emergency Management Center forwarded the call to the sheriff’s office, which said a hiker had lost the trail during his descent. A sheriff’s deputy and Volcano Rescue Team staff were able send text messages to the hiker, and successfully guided him back to the trail and to a parking lot. Later that evening, the sheriff’s office was called to help a group of four hikers that had come out of the Climbers Bivouac gated summer climbing route. The sheriff’s office said a deputy working on the previous call diverted to navigate the snow-covered, gated and closed National Forest Road 830.
