Rescue team members sit with a 36-year-old Ammi Midstokke after they had extricated her from beneath a two-ton boulder that had rolled onto her leg Saturday, on a trail leading from Chimney Rock, a prominent outcropping in the Selkirks, east of Priest Lake. The Coeur d’Alene Press reports the woman was hiking with a man and became stuck Friday afternoon after the large boulder on the side of the mountain shifted under her weight. Priest Lake Search and Rescue team members and the Bonner County EMS Wilderness Response Team reached her Friday evening around midnight, freed her and tended to her injuries, but had to wait for daybreak before she could be taken out by helicopter.
