A hiker was rescued from a mountain in the US state of Colorado after being apparently left behind the previous day by his colleagues during an office retreat.

The unnamed man got lost and found himself without phone signal after being left by colleagues who went ahead without him, the Chaffee County Search and Rescue team said.

He endured stormy weather and multiple falls before being found in a “large search effort” the next morning. He was stabilised and taken to hospital, but there has been no further update on his condition.

    Not only did they leave him behind, but they also picked up the markers they brought on the way down. They created the conditions for him to become lost in the first place.
