A search has been launched for a missing person at Bear Mountain, Sunday night.
Rockland Chaverim mobilized, and volunteers were deployed to the mountain. After around an hour, the missing person was found.
He was not injured at all.
Over the years Rockland Chaverim has located dozens of people missing on Bear Mountain, and in fact, they constantly train for searches in Bear Mountain as well as in nearby Harriman State Park.
