They found the guy, story seems a little fishy - got separated on Sunday afternoon.

Still looking for the girl.

Report from STR, a MTB site
"Gina is recused(sic) and on her way to Mission Hospital, alive and in good condition"

We'll see what pans out later on what happened; maybe.


Edit add (sic) - I don't think she was recused but rescued.

What's even more wierd is that they are longggggggg distance runners, and there are like 20 exit trails and a dirt road that runs the full length from the 91 to Ortega Highway, if someone wasn't hurt then something is up, one of them could have run in less than 3 hours to any number of places for help, just glad they are safe :D
