(WJW) — A New York man was found dead and his daughter remains missing after the pair went hiking on Mount Katahdin in Maine over the weekend.

According to the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, 58-year-old Tim Keiderling and his daughter, 28-year-old Esther Keiderling, went missing after leaving the Abol Campground in Baxter State Park to hike to the Mount Katahdin summit.

They left the campground around 10:15 a.m. on Sunday, officials said.

Park rangers started a search for the hikers on Monday morning after realizing that their vehicle was still in the same parking lot.

Officials said more than 30 game wardens, a K-9 unit, and helicopters flown by Maine Forest Service and the Maine Army National Guard joined the widespread search.

In a Tuesday update, the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife said the 58-year-old’s body was discovered by the K9 unit on the Katahdin Tablelands, near the summit, around 2:45 p.m.

The search continues for his daughter. Anyone with information should reach out to the Houlton State Police at 207-532-5400.

According to the National Park Service, Mount Katahdin, which means “Greatest Mountain,” is the highest in the state, peaking at 5,269 feet. Baxter State Park describes the hiking trails there as “a very strenuous climb, no matter which trailhead you choose.”
