A father and son who spent the night in the mountains are now safe at home.
The two men went hiking on the Waimano Trail Monday and got lost.
HFD was notified, but weather conditions Monday night made it difficult for crews to rescue the men.
Rescue crews returned early Tuesday morning and found the men near the Koolau ridgeline where they were airlifted to safety.
Fire officials remind hikers to pack the essentials.
"They had long pants a shoes and shirt but didn’t have a windbreaker or blanket they probably didn’t imagine that they would be in the mountains over night," said Capt. Terry Seelig of the Honolulu Fire Department.
The men declined medical treatment.
