STEHEKIN — A hiker separated from his party Saturday, Aug. 30, on the Pacific Crest Trail in the North Cascades National Park walked out of the trail Sunday into Chelan County, according Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office.

Volunteer searchers from Snohomish had begun to mobilize but the hiker reached parks service personnel before a helicopter response team left, said deputies in a press release today. No additional information was provided in the release.

It’s at least the second time in less than a week that searchers have mobilized in the region to locate hikers who have gone astray or were stranded.
