Missing Clovis Family Found Safe

A Clovis family reported missing after they left town Thursday morning to “go play in the snow” before being caught in one of the worst storms to hit California in years was found just after nightfall in good condition near Fresno Dome in Sierra National forest.

San Jose Mercury News: A Madera County Sheriff’s Department search and rescue team found 64-year-old John Hopper and his 15-year-old twins Matt and Sarah near Fresno Dome, a popular hiking destination in the Sierra National Forest.

Sheriff’s spokeswoman Erica Stuart said rescue crews found the family with three other people who apparently got trapped in the woods after the storm hit. Stuart said the Fresno Dome was the last known hiking area the rescue crew was scheduled to search Friday night.
