FRESNO, Calif. - A police officer from Southern California is among three hikers
missing in Kings Canyon National Park near Fresno.

Officials say San Bernardino Officer Lanier Rogers and brothers Jordan and Jake
Zeman were reported missing Monday night by their families.

The men began their six-day, 65-mile hike at the Road's End trail on Oct. 7 and
planned to hike to elevations as high as 14,000 feet.

They were scheduled to return to their vehicles Monday afternoon.

Searchers were called from around the state to aid Sequoia and Kings Canyon
National Parks in the search effort, which was hampered by the storm that hit
much of the state<http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33326596/ns/weather/>.

Any hikers who earlier this week walked the area between Road's End, east to
Forrester Pass, south to the Kern-Kaweah River or north to Bubbs Creek, were
asked to call investigators at (559) 565-3195.
