Proposal on Colorado peak leads to couple’s altitude issues

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — A Texas man found a scenic location in the Colorado mountains to propose to his girlfriend, but the couple ran into trouble on the way down.
The Boulder County sheriff’s office says 27-year-old Joshua Mason of Denton, Texas, took 28-year-old Katie Davis on a hike Saturday to Jasper Peak at an elevation of nearly 13,000 feet (4,000 meters).
They got lost as darkness fell.
The couple were showing signs of altitude sickness and dehydration when a hiker found them.
