Man Spots Odd Shape On Cliff Before Realizing The Urgent Truth

Fresh air, exercise, and all the sights Mother Nature has to offer — what more could you ask for from a hike? Of course, not all treks are created equal. One Idaho man learned this lesson the hard way when, while strolling through one of his favorite hangout spots, he saw something that made him do a double take. When he realized what it was, there was no turning back — he had to do something, fast.

Hike Gone Wrong

Dave Wright's heart sank when he was told what had happened in October 2019. It was a normal day in Twin Falls County, Idaho, when a group of locals strolling through Snake River Canyon spotted something high up on a cliff that caused them to stop in their tracks.

Distant Silhouette

There was a curious white blur, at first too distant to make out distinctly. When the onlookers approached further, they couldn't believe what they had discovered. There was an animal trapped on the rugged terrain!

Hard Spot to Reach

Surveying the rock face, the locals figured there was no way the animal could've climbed up the cliff by itself. They concluded that it must have survived a steep fall from the top of the mountain. It was a miracle it was still alive.

Full of Danger

The men knew they had to help, but the task at hand looked daunting. The cliff was not only high and steep, but it was also full of loose rocks and crumbling dirt that could prove dangerous even for seasoned climbers.
