The hiker suffered a medical injury in the Bishop Peak open space area, though officials did not disclose the hiker’s injuries. A Instagram photo appears to show the hiker suffered an injury to their left leg or foot.
Rescue workers found the hiker and treated him with advanced life support level medications before driving the victim down the mountain on an off-road vehicle. San Luis Ambulance then transported the hiker to the hospital.
The hiker’s current condition is unclear.
