Two people were rescued from Conklin’s Gully in Naples Tuesday afternoon. The call came into 9-1-1 just before 5 o’clock for two hikers who were not injured but were stuck and couldn’t get out of the gully.

The Middlesex Fire, Ontario and Dundee Rope Rescue Teams responded as did Naples, Bristol, and Cheshire fire departments along with Naples Ambulance.

The rescue took about three hours to complete.
