These fools should be made to pay for the expense of the search for them.

"Why they ever decided to do this when the storm's been on advisory for the last three or four days, I do not know," said warden Lt. Nathan Berry. <Me neither. The search for Moose sometimes makes people do strange things. At least they brought plenty of cheese.

Sounds like they don't really need rescuing.

Spotted Hikers are rare in the south. Mostly we have Striped Hikers and Solid Hikers.

I drove up 113 just to see where it went once. It goes from from nowhere and ends up near BF, Egypt. One lonely stretch of road that isn't plowed in the winter.

Why is it idiots like this never seem to have cell phones when the rest of the world is proliferated with them? One call could have saved tens of thousands of dollars.

Might be that the area in which they were hiking has poor or no cell coverage. We are talking about Maine, after all.

"

Unfortunately, we've trapped a few that migrated from the north.

We need to capture them and re-release them into their natural habitat.

Not to be confused with Clothed Hikers.

"
Volunteer searchers had spent five hours looking for the students Sunday night, but found no trace of them."
The Park's website says: "Always plan your trip well enough in advance to be prepared for whatever you might encounter and learn to be a 'no-trace' hiker."
They were apparently doing the latter part right.
