Tom and Panda Stead thought to be overdue
Friends
called to say that a couple did not return from a
day hike. Team members responded to Humber Park
and started hiking up the Devils Slide
Trail. The couple was going to Tahquitz Valley,
so the first team went there.
As
they yelled through the valley the got an answer.
They closed in on the calling and talked to the
couple, who were nice and warm in a tent and
sleeping bags.
They
said they had always intended on spending the
night and were not due out until the next day.
The
teams said good night and hiked back out.
Everyone was out by 6:00 a.m. and had a nice
breakfast before going off to work or sleep.
