Crews are searching for a missing, hurt hiker last seen Sunday afternoon in the Columbia River Gorge.

Leslie Drapiza of Silverton was last seen in the Warren Lake area, according to the Hood River County Sheriff’s Office. She texted a family member about 6:30 p.m. to say she’d been injured, and search teams started looking for her late Sunday evening.

They looked through the night but hadn’t found her by about 10:15 a.m.

She was last seen about 1 p.m. by another hiker, according to the sheriff’s office. Efforts to communicate with Drapiza or ping her phone after she texted the family member weren’t successful, deputies said.

But the sheriff’s office said about 12:30 p.m. Monday that authorities had gotten a text from her, saying she was on Mt. Defiance Trail No. 413. Rescuers are converging on that trail system, according to the sheriff’s office.

Drapiza initially departed from the Starvation Creek State Park trailhead off Interstate 84. The Warren Lake area has about 1 ½ feet of snow, deputies said, and more may be on the way.
