A fishing trip turned into a high-stakes rescue when two cousins suffered severe heat exhaustion and dehydration on Gravel Springs Creek.

Emergency crews raced to the remote, wooded area, using drones, ATVs, and even chainsaws to navigate and extract the unsteady victims. All were safely transported to the hospital, but the incident serves as a chilling reminder: heat exhaustion is deadly. Stay hydrated, seek shade, and if you’re not essential outside, stay inside.
