Sixteen-year-old Wang’s physical fitness and planning, as well as good weather, can be credited for her return home, team manager says

A teenage hiker found safe after going missing for more than two days in a Metro Vancouver provincial park is being praised for her preparedness.

RCMP Supt. Wendy Mehat says Wang was found around 9:30 p.m. Thursday, and has since gone home with her family after a medical assessment. The group left a lookout point at about 2:45 p.m. to head back to their campground, but about 15 minutes later they noticed that Wang was missing. The search and rescue team confirmed Thursday that a search was underway involving a helicopter, a drone and teams of rescuers from across the Lower Mainland.
