Missing Grand Canyon hiker, 83, rescued after getting separated from companion

An 83-year-old hiker who vanished in a remote stretch of Grand Canyon National Park after separating from his companion was found alive after an intense all-night search across rugged burn-scarred terrain, officials said Thursday.

Gerald Guinn, an experienced outdoorsman from Kanab, Utah, was found around 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday during a National Park Service helicopter search, about 2.5 miles from where he was last seen on the park's North Rim, according to the National Park Service and the Kane County Sheriff's Office.
