A 74-year-old woman and her Irish setter, Tawny, were found alive Tuesday after they were lost for two days in the mountains near Aspen, according to the Pitkin County Sheriff’s Office.
Jennifer Hearn was reported missing at 8:39 p.m. Sunday when she didn’t return from a hike on Triangle Peak, a steep, rocky trail in the Snowmass Canyon area of the Roaring Fork Valley, the sheriff’s office said in a news release.

A volunteer search crew with Mountain Rescue Aspen searched for Hearn and Tawny from roughly 9 p.m. Sunday until 2:40 a.m. Monday. Dozens of volunteers and first responders resumed searching for the pair at 8:17 a.m. Monday, including by plane and helicopter.
Search crews found Tawny, Hearn’s 3-year-old brown Irish setter, near a home on Triangle Peak at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, which allowed crews to focus the search to steep, rock-covered hillsides near the Woody Creek area, according to the sheriff’s office.
Hearn was found at 3:15 p.m. on the scree fields on the side of Triangle Peak, sheriff’s officials said in a news release. She is receiving medical care, but further details about her condition were not immediately available.
