A woman who was trapped for six days in the woods of Lassen County survived on a six-pack of yogurt and snow before being rescued, a release from the Lassen County Sheriff’s Office said. Justin Lonich and Sheena Gullett were traveling home to Little Valley on April 14, when they got stuck in the snow in a remote area of Lassen County. They spent the night in their car, but in the morning, the battery was dead and they tried to walk back to the main highway.
Gullett eventually fell behind and the two became separated in heavy snowfall. Lonich attempted to return for Gullet but couldn’t find her due to the heavy snowfall. After hitchhiking(搭顺风车) and sheltering for several nights, Lonich was able to reach Susanville in Lassen County on April 17 and report Gullett’s being trapped to authorities.
Bad weather and Lonich’s unfamiliarity with the area added difficulties to search efforts, but on April 20, around 3 p.m., an officer from the Sheriff’s Office found the car the two had been traveling in. Gullett immediately came out from the vehicle when he arrived and was “very emotional, but physically okay,” said the release.
The officer transported Gullett to a Ranger Station for a medical examination. Gullett survived on a six-pack of yogurt during the six days when she was trapped, and ate snow because she didn’t have any water. Gullett said she saw the Highway Patrol helicopter that flew the search area a few days earlier, but they couldn’t see her because the area was heavily wooded.
