Firefighters in Hawaii rescued more than 60 hikers on Christmas Eve, including some who were stranded for days, when heavy rain made streams too swollen to cross on the island of Kauai. After the local fire department was notified that some hikers were stranded in a valley for several days with dwindling supplies, a total of 62 people were airlifted by the end of the day. One male hiker suffered a non-life-threatening injury, officials say. Authorities posted closure signs at the trailhead Monday, and a worker warned hikers of the hazardous weather conditions. But some hikers ignored the warning and continued on, state officials say. In April, more than 120 hikers, including several children, had to be rescued in the same valley after being stranded by the rising stream. (More Hawaii stories.)
