This July 6, 2017, photo provided by Charles Brandenburg shows his self portrait taken along the Pacific Crest Trail near Tehachapi, Calif. Volunteer rescuers who were coming to the aid of Brandenburg, who had become dehydrated, were held up by armed men on the Pacific Crest Trail in the Piute Mountains near Tehachapi, Calif., about 85 miles north of Los Angeles. Authorities closed the trail after the robbery and airlifted Brandenburg and three other backpackers trying to hike the 2,650-mile (4,265-kilometer) route from Mexico to Canada on the trail.
