The search continues for two hikers in the Sierra Mountains.

53-year-old Larry Conn left on a hike in the Inyo National Forest on October 19th. 

He was planning to hike over the crest into Kings Canyon National Park. The search is now focusing on the eastern edge of park.

And additional resources are being called in to search for a Visalia man near Courtwright Reservoir. 

52-year-old Mathew Hanson left on a solo backpacking trip. He was supposed to be gone for ten days, returning last Thursday. 

Ground crews, a helicopter and small plane are all being used in the search.
