A woman in Colorado who was missing for five days was found alive in her car on Sunday, the KUSA-TV reported.
Kristin Hopkins, 43, prompted concerns from family members after they couldn't reach her on Tuesday.
Almost a week later, passing motorists stopped on the scenic U.S. Highway 285 and noticed a car in the aspen grove about 80 feet below around 2 p.m. After climbing down to the car wreckage, they called authorities.
The Park County Sheriff's Office identified the woman inside as Hopkins, extremely dehydrated and critically injured.
Hopkin was airlifted to St. Anthony's Central and is in critical condition, according to KUSA-TV. Her condition remained the same by Monday morning.
Patrol spokeswoman Cpl. Kris Galyean told The AP that Hopkins drove off the right side of the road on Tuesday. Her car hit several trees, went down an embankment, and rolled several times before landing on its top.
Park County sheriff's deputies, Fairplay police, South Park Ambulance, Northwest Fire, Jefferson Como Fire, and the Colorado State Patrol arrived at the scene to rescue Hopkins, according to 7NEWS.
Jim Cravener, a firefighter who assisted in the rescue, said Hopkins wrote pleas for help on an umbrella.
"It appeared she had written notes on an umbrella, that she could get out of the vehicle and open the umbrella, hoping somebody from the highway would see it," Cravener said.
