NEW opp police

North Bay OPP have located two missing hikers who became lost at the Duchesnay Falls trails Monday. 

Both of the hikers were from Sturgeon Falls and became disoriented and were afraid they couldn’t get out of the bush before dark.

The hikers called police and they activated the sirens until the hikers followed the sound so they could leave the bush.

Police point out trails change when we go from summer to fall and then winter and may become unfamiliar.

Police recommend you have a compass, map, lighter, food, water and cell phone with you when your outdoors.

Other tips include wear appropriate gear to deal with the weather and tell family and friends where you are going and when you expect to return.
