The search for a missing hiker in Nanaimo has come to a happy ending today after he was found safe.
Spencer Hunt set out for a hike at Ammonite Falls in Nanaimo with eight other people Saturday afternoon and was separated from the group.
“My son Spence went ahead [of the group]. At about 2 o’clock he turned around and waved to one of our hikers and we haven’t seen him since,” mother Debbie Hunt said.
Search and rescue (SAR) team members hit the trails around dinnertime and continued searching late into the night.
