Prince William has rescued two hikers that were reported missing earlier this week. E! News reported that on Tuesday he swooped in via helicopter and helped rescue two hikers that were trekking the Snowdonia region in North Whales.

The hikers were reportedly in their 40s and 50s and were trekking in the Glyder range and were forced to camp there Monday in dangerously freezing temperatures. E! News reported that the two hikers had said they would phone a friend with an update of their trip but when they never called a search party started. William and his helicopter crew came and rescued the hikers after a rescue team found them.

"The helicopter came about 1 a.m. to search the mountain which was quite difficult with patches of low cloud," a source said to The Mirror. "Flying the mountains at night with banks of low cloud requires great skill."

Prince William is a Search and Rescue Operations flight lieutenant  based in the Royal Air Force Station Valley (RAF Valley) in Wales. Prince William has been on the team since September 2010.

This isn't the first time the gallant Prince has come to the rescue of stranded hikers. Last August the Prince rescued stranded Canadian hiker Darlene Burton, 58, in Wales.

The Globe and Mail said that Prince William was working with the British Royal Air Force helicopter that carried the woman who is from Barrie, Ontario to the hospital. The Prince is not only royalty he is also a hero. Just five days prior to that he pulled a 16 year old out of turbulent water.

Burton was on a 10 day hike in Wales with her husband, Lawrence Oakley. They were hiking a long a trail that would lead them to the Point Lynas Lighthouse, when she reportedly slipped and fell and broke her leg.

The same month the Prince also helped save a pair of teen girls on a rescue mission after they had been swept out to sea while body boarding in Anglesey. The BBC reported at the time that the RAF called the mission one of its "fastest and shortest operations." It reportedly only took the helicopter 38 seconds to arrive.
