Around 9 p.m., a man asked authorities to contact his wife who was waiting for him at Swan Creek Campground after he determined that he and his 15-year-old son were not going to make it back to the vehicle that night. They were at the top of Hyalite Peak on bicycles and did not need help but just wanted his wife, who did not have a cell phone, to know they were OK and would make their way out in the morning.

Having been up in there, I'd say it was a fairly logical thing to do in the circumstances, although he should have planned ahead better.
