Friday evening at approximately 1830 hrs. we received a call from the Hemet office of the Riverside County Sheriffs' Department that a man and his three children had left Humber Park in the mid day and had planned to hike to Skunk Cabbage and meet with other members of the family who were to hike in from the tram. But with a major snow storm in the making the other family members returned to the tram, and reported the information to the sheriff.

As the call out was just beginning the sheriff called back stating that the group had just walked back to Humber and all were in fair condition.
