Hiker found after missing in North Cascades for a month

NORTH CASCADES, Wash. — A hiker who was missing for a month in the North Cascades has been found and returned home.

According to Cascadia Daily, 39-year-old Robert Schock was on the Chilliwack River Trail with his dog on July 31st.

Five days later, a park ranger found his dog - but not him.

Crews searched the difficult, 17-mile trail with no luck.

Then last Friday a crew working on the trail heard him yelling for help.

Schock was weak and malnourished but alive.

He’s now recovering at United General Hospital in Sedro-Wooley.
