Hiker rescued after 3 days

This story sounds a bit odd. I'm glad he was rescued, though I do wonder why it took three days to do so when he had a partner with him. Could they really have hiked in far enough that it took multiple days for his partner to hike out, or was conditions bad enough that a rescue couldn't be staged immediately?

I guess my advice would be that instead of planning to take a solar-powered light, he ( and his hiking companion ) takes a PLB with him next time.
