The hiker, who was not injured and declined medical treatment, had camped in the area on Friday night, but became lost and used a cellphone to text a friend. The friend then called the sheriff's department.

Hiker rescued from Bull of the Woods
The rescue season is really picking up quickly, with at least two in close proximity over the last weekend. Luckily this case and the other on the PCT in Marion County, the hikers' cell phones still had enough reception to make contact.

Re: Hiker rescued from Bull of the Woods
Yeah, I walked out of the Bull of the Woods Wilderness on Sunday morning (I spent Friday - Sunday out there, backpacking...I'll get a trip report up in the next few days, if I can make a little time), to two search and rescue members who had just searched the Dickey Creek Area.
Glad she was found safe! It was a little worrying to walk out of the woods to that sight.
