    The two missing trampers found alive in the upper South Island only have minor injuries

    The two missing trampers found alive in the upper South Island only have minor injuries


    Dion Reynolds and Jessica O'Connor, 23, went tramping in the Kahurangi National Park 18 days ago but failed to make their expected return on May 15.

    A St John spokeswoman says the pair only had minor injuries and an ambulance had met a helicopter to take them to Nelson Hospital.

    A Nelson Hospital spokeswoman says both patients are in a stable condition.
