Jude Ruddy moves a blanket to cover Sandy Mileto, whose car slid off the road and down a cliff, stranding her in the freezing cold for five hours Tuesday night, as she recovers in the Pikes Peak Regional Hospital with frostbite on both her hands and feet Thursday, April 25, 2013. Mileto climbed back up to the road through the snow with only one shoe. "The whole time I pretty much knew I was going to lose this foot," Mileto said. Michael Ciaglo, The Gazette
Sandy Mileto attempts to move her fingers after a serious crash Tuesday night stranded her in the cold off Highway 67, leaving her with frostbitten hands and feet. To make it back up to the road, Mileto had to make a long trek up a cliff with just one shoe. "It was either I lay here and die, or get up and just do it," Mileto said Thursday, April 25, 2013 while recovering in the hospital. Michael Ciaglo, The Gazette
