Body Of Missing Hiker Believed Found Near Stonewall Peak in Cuyamaca

A body was found near Stonewall Peak in Cuyamaca today. The body is believed to be that of 52-year-old Joseph Roushar, (who appears to have been a local masseuse via a quick Google search) who went hiking about noon on Friday. His jacket containing his cell phone was found at around 7PM the same day. Rescuers began searching during the night and found the body at 10:45AM, about 200 feet below the peak.

I will keep my commentary to myself other than to say be careful out there.

Stonewall Peak is a fairly safe trail, especially when it is dry. There is a guard rail and it is visited often. Don't be deterred by the occasional accident in the outdoors. Trekking poles definitely help in any sketchy situations.
