A pair of teenage hikers managed to survive a massive snowstorm in southern California by huddling together for warmth. Riley Ramirez and Cole White, both 17, were dropped off near the Pacific Crest Trail for a hiking trip, per a March 3  release from the Morongo Basin Sheriff's Department. Ramirez and White are both seasoned hikers who went into their 10-day hike prepared with food, a tent, and snowshoes, the Associated Press reported. "They knew there was weather. But I don't think they expected the amount," John Scalise, a sergeant at the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, told the AP.
