Rene Compean was no stranger to Angeles National Forest. He     1     (hike) the park numerous times. But when hiking along a new path, the 45-year-old was lost.

    2     the day faded into darkness, his concern turned to fear. With only a little water in his backpack and 10% battery     3    (remain) on his cellphone, Compean was unprepared for anything more than the two-hour trip he’d planned.

Compean climbed to a spot     4     he found one bar of signal. “SOS. My phone is going to die. I'm lost,”he texted a friend, attaching a photo showing where he was. The shot showed his legs hanging over a rock face. All Compean could do then was wait. The temperature was dropping fast.     5     (dress) only in shorts, and a sweatshirt, the hiker was chilled to the bone. He hugged himself into a tight ball. And after spotting two mountain lions, he spent the night     6     high alert.

Sixty miles away, Ben Kuo     7     (work) at home when he read a posting from the police, showing an image of a man’s legs. The search-and-rescue teams had spent the previous night unsuccessfully looking for Compean, so they released the photo, hoping someone     8     recognize the location.

“I've always loved looking for where photos are taken,” Kuo says. He frequently tries to identify     9     movie scenes or commercials were filmed. He’s often successful. The first thing he noticed in Compean’s photo was plenty of greenery. After comparing it to the satellite map, Kuo realized something: “He’s got to be on the south side because there’re not any green valleys on the north side.” That finding led him to an area that looked like the territory in the image. The final step was cross-referencing the original photo with 3-D images of the area. The locations matched!

After spending 27 hours in the wilderness, Compean was found. Compean’s story probably would have ended differently had it not been for the man with strong satellite skills and     10     sharp eye for detail.
