A hiker who got lost in Joshua Tree National Park Thursday afternoon has been found alive and well.

At around 5 p.m., the group reported the hiker missing. Park staff and members of Joshua Tree Search and Rescue mobilized and began a search for the missing hiker. The hiker was located by responders at around 7:30 p.m. and was hiked out without injuries. With temperatures rising well above 100°F at this time of the year, Joshua Tree National Park is urging visitors to take precautions before hiking.
