Texas family of 10 rescued in West Pioneers

 Search-and-rescue teams rescued a family of 10 from Lefors, Texas, after they got lost during a hike in the rugged mountains of southwestern Montana.

Beaverhead County Sheriff Franklin Kluesner said two boys, ages 13 and 14, hiked several miles for help June 19, two days after the family got lost in the mountains near Wisdom. The family was out of food and water by the 18th and resorted to drinking stream water.

The boys and a 41-year-old man caught frogs, cooked and ate them on morning of the 19th, and then headed for help. The man collapsed along the way, but the boys continued on.

    HUH? If they resorted to eating frogs and drinking stream water, they weren't "out of food and water".

    If the two teenagers could walk back to civilization, they weren't lost.

    They must have been from Austin.
