(FOX40.COM) — Tahoe Search and Rescue was sent to find hikers who got lost at an off-trail near Twin Lakes on Sept. 28.

According to TSR, two people became lost as they were hiking from Twin Lakes to the parking area at Wrights Lake Twin Lakes trailhead. EDSAR volunteers responded to the trailhead parking area, and two ground teams used different routes to respond to the last known location.

TSR said once the ground teams reached the last known location, they reported they could not find the people. At around the same time, the two subjects left the EDSAR parking-lot staging area.

At the end, they indicated they had met up with other hikers who helped them out on the trail.

A video shows a person hanging onto a rope provided by the rescue helicopter and being pulled up.
