Two separate hikers had to be rescued after being injured in the Snow Lake area near Snoqualmie Pass on Sunday. Crews from King County Search and Rescue and Bellevue Fire hiked two miles up the trailhead to reach a 40-year-old woman who fell more than 150 feet. Firefighters said the woman has lower body injuries but is in stable condition. It took crews several hours to walk her out of the trail, carrying her on a stretcher. She was transported by Bellevue Firefighters to the hospital for her injuries. Shortly after that call, crews received reports of a separate hiker was also injured by falling rocks. That woman suffered cuts to hear head but was okay otherwise.
