Apparently men do ask for directions.

A man and his three children were rescued after becoming disoriented on a hike down Perry Canyon in Box Elder County Saturday evening.

The family had started a 4-mile hike from Perry Reservoir when they became lost and called 911 for help, according to a Box Elder County Sheriff's Office press release. Dispatchers located the family using GPS and a search and rescue team found the hikers and assisted them down the canyon around 10 p.m.

None of the hikers were injured.
