Shirtless hiker missing for 10 days in Santa Cruz Mountains survived on berries and creek water

Blackberries growing by a creek.

A hiker who’d been missing for 10 days in the Californian wilderness has been rescued, after surviving for 10 days on berries and creek water.

Lukas McClish thought he’d only be gone for a three hours or so when he started his hike on June 11 in Boulder Creek, about 14 miles north of Santa Cruz. He didn’t even bother putting on a shirt, was equipped only with some scissors and a flashlight, and didn’t tell anyone where he was going.
