A Vancouver hiker's day didn't quite go as planned over the weekend when he relied on his phone for navigation. The man, who required a helicopter rescue, was attempting to hike Mount Fromme, one of the North Shore Mountains north of Vancouver, from the Kennedy Falls area. Using Google Maps he followed a trail that it turns out doesn't exist – and found himself stranded on a steep cliffside.
North Shore Rescue (NSR), who came to the hiker's aid, revealed in a Facebook post that this is the third such rescue mission required as a result of the erroneous navigation guide.
