CRAWFORD NOTCH, N.H. — Two hikers missing in Crawford Notch since Sunday were found Tuesday morning, officials said.

Alex Obert, 30, and Steven McCay, 29, both of Arlington, Va., were found on the back side of Mount Eisenhower and appeared to be in good condition. A helicopter spotted the men walking and took each one off the mountain at 10:15 and 10:30 a.m.

“This is so wonderful,” said McCay’s mother through tears. “We want to thank all the rescue people and all the Fish and Game people for all they’ve done.”
