flag An 80-year-old man was rescued in New Zealand’s Coromandel region after becoming lost and dehydrated on a hiking trail, having worn only shorts and a singlet and carried no emergency supplies. flag Police were alerted around 10 p.m. when his family reported him missing; his phone signal placed him just 100 meters from Crosbies Hut. flag Despite poor weather grounding helicopters, a nearby family—mother and two teenagers—found him in the dark, formed a human heat circle to warm him, and escorted him to the hut. flag Rescuers extracted him at first light. flag Authorities emphasized the critical need for proper clothing, food, water, and emergency gear, including affordable emergency locator beacons, for all bush walks, especially in remote areas.
