Three hikers who set out on one of Vancouver's North Shore mountain trails late yesterday afternoon had to call for help when darkness fell and they got lost.
North Shore Rescue was called in at about 10:30, located the trio overnight, and although the three men were not hurt, they were helicoptered out of the area this morning.
The call was one of three the rescue group says it received in the last 24 hours.
One involved a hiker on Mount Seymour who set out late in the day yesterday and ended up spending the night on the mountain but was able to hike out this morning, while the third involved a woman who fell and hit her head but was rescued and is expected to fully recover.
