Tim and Esther Keiderling were found dead this week after attempting to scale Mount Katahdin in Maine over the weekend, after a massive search party recovered their bodies.

Tim Keiderling and Esther Keiderling, both of Ulster Park, New York, set out to hike the summit on Sunday, officials said.

A hiker was discovered dead near the summit of Maine's highest peak Tuesday, after he and his daughter went missing. The daughter has not been found.
