Meanwhile, a separate search is underway in Los Angeles County for another hiker.

Bob Gregory, of Hawthorne, was reported missing by family on Monday afternoon. They searched for him in the Crystal Lake area of ​​the San Gabriel Mountains, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Station San Dimas.

The family say they are distraught and fear he may have injured himself and fallen. They added that the police are tracking his cell phone.

Search teams combed the area on the ground and from the air on Tuesday. But those efforts were limited to just flight crews on Wednesday due to the icy conditions at the difficult terrain, authorities said.
