**Related Video Above: Cleveland Clinic testing “magic mushrooms” as treatment

KEENE, N.Y. (WJW) – What began as a fun Memorial Day trip through New York’s Adirondack High Peaks for a group of friends turned into another kind of trip.

A ranger was dispatched to Cascade Mountain on Saturday around 9 a.m. after two hikers called 911 to report that a third person who was hiking with them had died, the New York Department of Environmental Conservation said in a news release.

The two then reportedly ran into a Cascade Summit Steward — who is part of a park program that works to help visitors and keep the mountain ecosystems healthy — and told them of their plight, adding they were lost.

Once a ranger arrived on scene, the steward told them that the two “hikers were in an altered mental state,” having allegedly ingested hallucinagenic mushrooms, according to the release.

These types of mushrooms, according to the Cleveland Clinic, lead to heightened sensory awareness, but can also lead to a “bad trip,” which can “cause frightening hallucinations, terror, depression or panic attacks.”

The third hiker also contacted officials, confirming they were alive and uninjured.

The third hiker was escorted back to the campsite, while the two others were taken to an ambulance, where police were also waiting.
