"Lost, disoriented and later stuck in a storm, the man was forced to spend the night alone on the mountain before being rescued, Chaffee County Search and Rescue South said in a statement Sunday."
"The fact that 'one member of their party was left to complete his final summit push alone,' might cause some awkward encounters at the office in the coming days and weeks."
"By about 11:30 a.m., the man had reached the top of the roughly 14,000-foot mountain in San Isabel National Forest. But he soon found that his co-workers had picked up the objects marking the descent as they hiked down."
"Worried, the man used his phone to send a pin-drop of his location to his colleagues. They responded that he was going the wrong way and told him to climb back uphill to find the trail."
