After around 24 hours of being lost, they eventually found the trail, and made it to their car — all without knowing that a search team had been looking for them.

In a statement posted to Facebook, Lake County Search and Rescue said: “Multiple attempts to contact the subject via their cell phone were unsuccessful.”

“The subject stated they’d lost the trail around nightfall and spent the night searching for the trail, and once on the trail, bounced around onto different trails trying to locate the proper trailhead, finally reaching their car the next morning, approximately 24 hours after they’d started their hike. They had no idea that SAR was out looking for them,” the statement continued.
