Phillips, from Santa Clarita, vanished on June 3 after going on a hike near the Nauyaca waterfalls, when a devastating storm unleashed heavy rains that caused flooding and landslides.

Emergency crews and volunteers looked for Phillips for days — periodically having to pause search efforts due to the difficult weather conditions.
