Nearly one year after a family died on a remote trail in Northern California, a man from Michigan who tried to retrace their steps had to be rescued last week, drawing the ire of the local sheriff.
According to the Mariposa County Sheriff's Office, a call came in June 29 reporting a man missing in the Hites Cove/Savage Lundy Trail area, near where the bodies of Jonathan Gerrish, his wife, Ellen Chung, their 1-year-old daughter Aurelia "Miju" Chung-Gerrish and their dog Oski were found in August 2021.
The caller said they had spoken with the man around 7 a.m. June 28 about the deaths of the family, according to the Sheriff's Office.
