Search On For Missing Hikers, Dog In Tuolumne County
TUOLUMNE COUNTY (CBS13) – The search continues for two hikers and their dog who were reported missing on Wednesday.
Donna Hallberg, 55, and Mark Smallwood, 59, are both from Modesto. They left on Sunday to hike in the Pinecrest area with their dog.
A friend reported them missing when they didn't come home as scheduled on Tuesday.
Deputies say they are experienced hikers and have cell phones, but officials can't track down their location due to a lack of service.
Search crews were out on Thursday using infrared technology but came up empty. Two more helicopters, four K9 units and more agencies will be helping in the search on Friday.
