The flood misery continues in Colorado, but one piece of good news has emerged: Two women trapped in an ice storm for two days on one of the state's highest mountains managed to walk down to safety, reports the AP. The same storm that has delivered devastating floods pinned the experienced hikers from Maine on Longs Peak. Their plight became known when one texted her sister that they needed help, and the families set up this Tumblr page. Park Service officials couldn't get to them and were trying to organize another rescue attempt, "but they came out on their own," says a ranger in Rocky Mountain National Park. "They are in fine condition."
In Boulder, however, authorities found the body of a 19-year-old woman, bringing the state death toll to four, reports the Denver Post. (The newspaper has thorough coverage of the devastation and rescue operations, including this photo gallery.) The body of the woman's boyfriend had been recovered yesterday—authorities think she got swept away after exiting their car, and he died trying to rescue her. Forecasters, meanwhile, say heavy rain is expected to continue through Sunday, reports CNN. (More Colorado stories.)
