August Lost Trail Runner on Sheratin Mtn

On August 3, a trail runner training for the 24-hour Kodiak “7-Summits Challenge” became lost on the northwest spur of Sheratin Mountain in low clouds. She contacted the State Troopers who requested that KISAR respond to help guide her back to the trail and off the mountain. The Troopers had a location for her, and KISAR members Steve Wielebski, Sharon Wielebski, Chris Glade, Doug Dorner, and Shanna McGrath hiked up the North Side trail from the end of Anton Larsen Bay Road to guide her out.
