After listening for a while, I heard heard a group come around the same section, but this time there was a really knarly skid, followed by a low pitched thud, a shriek and then silence.

I took out my PLB and pushed the button. We also sent SOS messages via the Garmin Inreach to my emergency contact who were passing that info to SAR and initiating a Search and Rescue.
Fishing

My brother was pinned under the boat inside an air pocket and my father was swept away by the current. I too was in the water attempting to help my father and saw my neon green ACR Aqua Link Personal Locator Beacon float out of the boat.

Two more days of hiking through challenging terrain was required to reach our planned exit point from the trail. Peter did not think I could safely make it, given my balance problems and breathing difficulties, and was concerned that I might end up with pneumonia if we stayed longer in the hut.

When they got to me I was shivering uncontrollably. I was going into severe hypothermia. They assessed my injury and immediately started warming me up.

Whilst making his way through the bush, Trevor stepped into a well-hidden crevasse which was about 4 meters deep.

Somewhere in the darkness I had decided that there was no way I could walk out of here... not even retracing our steps.

I didn't have enough time to get a distress out and had to climb through the wheelhouse window and popped up in the water beside the upturned hull of my fishing vessel.
