Missing woman found dead on Maine's Katahdin a day after father, park rangers say
The body of a missing woman was found on Maine’s Katahdin mountain Wednesday, a day after her father’s was found, officials said.
Esther Keiderling’s body was found about 1 p.m. off the wooded area known as Tablelands, a Maine Warden Service representative told NBC affiliate News Center Maine.
The discovery ended a dayslong search — the father and daughter from New York’s Hudson Valley were last seen Sunday.
The body of her father, Tim Keiderling, was found about 2:45 p.m. Tuesday. on the Tableland, near the summit of Katahdin, Maine’s highest mountain, officials said.
Tim, 58, and Esther, 28, were last seen at a campground Sunday morning on their way to the summit of Katahdin, Maine’s tallest mountain, according to a post on the Baxter State Park Facebook page.
Park rangers began searching for the Keiderlings on Monday morning, when their vehicle was spotted in day-use parking, searching trails near the Abol Campground, where they’d been, without finding any sign of them, according to the post.
Several helicopters and more than 30 game wardens joined the search on Tuesday, finding no trace of the pair as of about noon on Tuesday, park rangers said.
The Keiderlings are from Ulster Park, a town on the Hudson River near Kingston.

Arlington National Cemetery’s new exhibit showcases rare artifact from USS Maine explosion
ARLINGTON, Va. (7News) — There’s a new exhibit at Arlington National Cemetery (ANC), showcasing a rare artifact from the USS Maine, a U.S. Navy ship that exploded in the Havana Harbor in 1898.
The exhibit’s centerpiece is a wooden fragment of the Maine’s spar mast, which survived the explosion that claimed more than 260 lives and ultimately led to the Spanish-American War. The piece was recovered after the ship sank, ANC said.
The fragment was donated by the Pascack Historical Society in New Jersey in 2023.

“The Maine was one of the most famous ships in American military history,” Arlington National Military Cemeteries Command Curator Roderick Gainer said, “and its destruction was a critical event in our nation’s history.”
The new exhibit is located in the Memorial Amphitheater Display Room, which is just behind the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier plaza. It is open to visitors from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.

A winter storm will hit Maine through Monday
A winter storm will move through Maine from Sunday into Monday, according to the National Weather Service in Caribou.
Precipitation, expected to begin early Sunday, will start as snow before changing to rain from south to north during the day.
The storm is expected to bring mostly snow north of Katahdin, with 10 or more inches in some areas, with less south of the mountain.
Coastal, central, and southern Maine is expected to get anywhere between a dusting to a few inches.
In eastern Aroostook County, snowfall totals will depend on whether temperatures rise enough for a rain–snow mix.
Rain may switch back to light snow Sunday night before tapering off on Monday.
The weather service advised Mainers to plan for slippery roads and sidewalks, especially in northern parts of the state.
