A woman spent hours being trapped under a boulder on Mount Hood, a place which seems to have more than its share of mishaps and tragedies.
Megan Vansteenwyk didn't see the one-ton boulder roll onto her younger sister, Emily. She only heard her sister's "awful scream."
The sisters and two friends had been hiking a rocky stretch of Top Spur on Mount Hood on Tuesday when Emily Vansteenwyk fell and a 5-foot boulder crushed her right foot. The three ran to Emily's aid, but the rock was stuck.
Emily, 20, begged for help.
"She's my sister," said Megan, 21. "I have never been in more pain for somebody in my life."
The boulder had landed squarely on Emily's foot, flattening it like a pancake, Megan said. It would remain there for nearly five hours, as Megan and fellow hikers Adrian Inzerillo and Matthew Ellis tried to dislodge it.
How awful. Amazingly, Emily has no broken bones in her foot.
