A “cursing and irate” hiker was rescued after getting stuck in a New Mexico gorge for hours – and now faces charges for trespassing, authorities said.
The hiker, identified as 54-year-old Casey Waldman, of Huntington Beach, California, attempted to climb down from a ledge of the Rio Grande Gorge Friday in search of a hot spring, but became stuck, the Taos County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release.
