Stranded Hiker Saved After 5 Weeks
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. Jan. 15, 2007(AP) A faint sound made Albert and Peter Kottke stop and look around as they hiked out of the Gila Wilderness at the end of backpacking trip.

A figure moved on the other side of the Gila River. As it drew closer, the two university students saw a woman, hunched over and moving slowly.
