Lexi DeForest fell and was trapped in a trench Wyoming’s Vedauwoo Mountains. She made a video diary to document the experience while her friend went to get help.

The 21-year-old says hearing her own voice helped ease her anxiety while she waited for search and rescue crews. It took them more than seven hours to reach her.
