Three hikers were rescued from California’s Mt. Whitney yesterday, but two more remain missing. Heavy snow and extreme weather battered the area, reducing visibility and dropping temperatures near the peak to 20 degrees, CNN reports. The two who are still missing, a father and son originally from Iran, were hiking the 36-mile trail with a friend, who became ill and returned early. Sinh Baghsohi, 27, and his father were due back Tuesday.
