Two hikers who went missing in California’s Yosemite National Park over the weekend were found alive on Monday after a two-day search, officials said.
Miguel Delgado, 63, and 40-year-old Ana Rodarte were reunited with family after rescuers located them, the National Park Service (NPS) said. A park spokesman told Fox News Digital that there was no immediate word on whether the hikers were injured.
Delgado and Rodarte had left the Bridalveil Creek Campground around 10 a.m. Saturday to go on a day hike toward Ostrander Lake. Officials said they were expected to return to the campground after a couple of hours, but never showed up.
Rangers and rescue personnel searched all trails in the area during the two-day search for Delgado and Rodarte, the park spokesman said.
