Did you know rescues are up, especially on Piestewa and Camelback? (Surprise!)

The 50% increase relative to the first half of 2013 sounds pretty bad at first, but the lower graph shows that interval in 2013 as quite a bit low compared to other years. That's still a lot of rescues, though.

Not surprised at all it just seems to be the touristy thing to do.
