PROVO, Utah (ABC 4 News) Two teenage hikers were able to go home Tuesday morning after being stranded in Provo Canyon on Monday night.

A sixteen-year-old and seventeen-year-old became lost after climbing too high near Bridal Veil Falls when it became dark.

The Utah County Sheriff's Office responded at about 9:30 p.m. Monday.  

Sgt. Spencer Cannon said it took a technical rescue team to get the hikers down, which took several hours.

He said they were in no immediate danger, but were extremely cold.
