A second hiker who had been missing since Sunday was found dead in Maine on Wednesday, according to Baxter State Park officials.
Tim Keiderling, 58, and his 28-year-old daughter, Esther, from Ulster Park, New York, set out on a hike to reach the summit of Mount Katahdin’s mile-high peak on a Sunday morning. They were last seen around 10:15 a.m. on that day.
Their family became worried for their safety after they could not contact the pair on Sunday night, according to The Bangor Daily News.
A picture of the father-daughter duo circulated during their search on Mount Katahdin, shared by the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife.
The park officials offered condolences to the Keiderling family and their friends.
After park authorities found their car still parked in a day-lot on Monday morning, an all-out search was launched.
To aid in their search, 25 Maine Game Wardens, four canine teams from the Maine Game Warden K9 unit, 21 park rangers from Baxter State Park, members of the Maine Association for Search and Rescue, and teams from Maine Search and Rescue Dogs were involved. Additionally, helicopters from both the Maine Forest Service and the Maine Army National Guard supported the search efforts.

Baxter State Park Director Kevin Adam said the weather conditions on Sunday, when the pair went missing, were “freezing rain, fog, and some snow,” according to The Bangor Daily News.
