Lost father, boy rescued

Rescuers were called out Sunday night to help a lost father and son in Vancouver's North Shore Mountains.

The man and his five-year-old son had been hiking near Whyte Lake, CTV News reports.

They lost their way while looking for one of their dogs, which had run off.

North Shore Rescue volunteers walked them out late Sunday.

The family did not have a flashlight, said search manager Peter Haigh.

It was the 142nd callout of 2018 for the search and rescue group.
