Hmmm, this sounds a little suspicious:
Several search-and-rescue groups collaborated today to rescue 10 sheriff's deputies stranded in the Skamania County wilderness Saturday night.
Skamania County Sheriff's deputies and Clark-Skamania Drug Task Force officers had removed more than 3,000 marijuana plants on the east side of Dog Mountain Saturday.
With some of them exhausted and dehydrated, the group decided to spend the night in the wilderness rather than hike out of the narrow gorge, said Skamania County Undersheriff Dave Cox. All but one of the 10 sheriff's deputies had been rescued by early this afternoon.
Yes, it's hard to imagine what ten deputies and 3,000 marijuana plants were doing all night out in the wilderness...
