Town of Windham in Greene County

Wilderness Search:
On Nov. 19 at 2:57 p.m., Forest Rangers were alerted to a report of a hiker with a leg injury on Windham High Peak, approximately three miles from the trailhead. Rangers Dawson, Fox, Gullen, Mitchell, and Jackson responded. Rangers hiked up with a wheeled litter and found the 65-year-old hiker from Fishkill. Rangers splinted the subject's ankle and helped the hiker back out to the trailhead. The hiker declined further care and resources were clear at 9:49 p.m.
