Couple camping in California wilderness find lost man who survived for weeks on half Jar of salsa

"His feet were extremely swollen and infected just from walking so much, and possibly the cold where he was"

Newsroom December 8 02:12

A man who was lost in the wilderness for two weeks was rescued by a couple who heard him screaming for help.

Allison Scott and her boyfriend were camping between Big Bear Lake and Angelus Oaks on Black Friday.

However, their holiday trip took a detour, Scott told ABC 7 in Los Angeles.

“We were underneath a flight path and an airplane went by pretty low and we heard someone yelling for help,” she told the outlet.

Scott and her boyfriend jumped into action and spotted a man.

“We end up finding him, and my boyfriend is looking over the ridge and calling out, ‘Hey I see you,'” Scott explained to ABC 7. “He had a stick with a water bottle on it trying to signal. He couldn’t walk. His feet were extremely swollen and infected just from walking so much, and possibly the cold where he was.”
