The story unfolded when two intrepid hikers stumbled upon a furry friend along the trail, alone and injured. Undeterred by the challenging circumstances, the hikers attempted to befriend the distressed dog, only to face an unexpected challenge as one of them sustained a bite while trying to assist the wounded pup down the mountain.
Recognizing the urgency of the situation, the hikers promptly contacted Jeffco Open Space Rangers and Jeffco Animal Control for assistance. One hiker bravely stayed with the injured canine, providing comfort and assurance, while the other descended the mountain to seek medical help and guide rescuers to the exact location.
In a fortuitous turn of events, a vigilant ranger recalled a lost dog poster that had been displayed in the park over a month ago.

Swift communication with Animal Control led to a call to the dog's owner, paving the way for a heartwarming reunion.
With determination and teamwork, the Jeffco Rangers and Animal Control Officers embarked on a challenging hike to reach the stranded dog. After a successful rescue mission, the dog, affectionately named Nova, was gently brought down from the mountain and reunited with its overjoyed owner.
