A man drove off an embankment and crashed into a steep ravine with his four dogs June 2 in Baker County, Oregon, deputies said.
Brandon Garrett was traveling north on U.S. Forest Service Road 39 with his four dogs on Sunday night when he"failed to negotiate a curve" and crashed over an embankment, according to the Baker County Sheriff's Office. While Garrett was able to crawl about 100 yards from the wrecked vehicle, where he remained overnight, one of his dogs ran four miles to their camp and alerted family members.
Sheriff's deputies responded to the scene along with Baker County Search and Rescue, Pine Valley Rural Fire District and Halfway Ambulance. Sheriff Travis Ash located the vehicle and a dog in the"steep, brushy ravine," and as he was searching for an access point, heard Garrett calling for help.
