UPDATE: North Shore Rescue has found the missing hiker. She was found safe two hours after getting lost.
North Shore Rescue began searching for a lost hiker on Mount Fromme in North Vancouver Thursday evening.
Team lead Mike Danks said crews were searching for a 73-year-old woman who was on the mountain without a light source.
The hiker said she was uninjured, according to Danks.
This comes just over a month after crews suspended their search for missing 65-year-old hiker Debbie Blair on Cypress Mountain.
Blair was hiking with a group when she became separated. Crews were unable to locate her after several days of searching in inclement weather.
