A Santa Barbara teenager still hasn't been found a week after he went missing in Yosemite National Park, park officials said.

Gerardo Cruz Hernandez, 18, was last seen Wednesday morning in Santa Barbara. His car was found that night at Glacier Point, one the park's most popular overlooks, with views of Half Dome and Yosemite Falls.

"We got word he was missing through his family that got word he was coming up here," Ranger Scott Gediman, Yosemite National Park public affairs officer, told ABC 3 KEYT.

Hernandez is believed to have entered the park alone. Gediman said crews searched trails and the bottom of slopes Monday but failed to turn up any clues to Hernandez's disappearance.

Authorities described the teen as Hispanic, 5-foot-7 and 120 pounds, and dark-haired. He has a tattoo on his right wrist and was wearing Nike Air Force 1 sneakers.

Anyone who was in the area of Glacier Point on Wednesday, or who may have information about Hernandez's whereabouts, is asked to contact park officials at 209-379-1992.

The forecast for Yosemite calls for sunny or partly cloudy weather through next Tuesday. Daytime highs are expected in the 50s with lows in the 20s and 30s through Saturday.
