Rodriguez said search and rescue crews will continue to scan the area using a helicopter and drones when weather permits and will schedule another ground search when it's safe to do so.The sheriff's department recommended people heed warnings and avoid the area, where high winds and ice have made for treacherous conditions.
"The recent storms that brought the snow and ice conditions are not favorable for hikers, even those that feel they have a high level of experience," the department said inSearch and rescue crews have launched 14 rescue missions for lost, stranded and injured hikers on the mountain and in the surrounding area over the last four weeks, the department said, and two hikers have died after having fallen and injured themselves.
