TAMWORTH — On Friday, May 20, shortly after 1 p.m., New Hampshire Fish and Game was notified that a hiker was suffering from a medical emergency on the Hammond Trail on Mount Chocorua. The hiker was Jon Zadrodzky, 21, of Darien, Conn. Zadrodzky was hiking with a group of friends when he lost the ability to continue. His hiking partner was able to place a call to 911 for help. They were nearly 2 miles from the trailhead.
Along with conservation officers, members of the U.S. Forest Service, SOLO students and Lakes Region Search and Rescue and Action Ambulance responded. As rescuers were hiking in, Zadrodzky’s condition improved and when they met him, he was treated and able to hike out under his own power. He arrived back at the trailhead shortly after 4:30 p.m. and was evaluated by Action Ambulance personnel.
