"The identification process for the body located on Mt Baldy on June 24, 2023, has been completed and was positively identified as 65-year-old Julian Sands of North Hollywood," the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said in a statement.
"The manner of death is still under investigation, pending further test results."
A search for Sands was launched in January after he failed to return from a hike.
"We would like to extend our gratitude to all the volunteers that worked tirelessly to locate Mr. Sands," the statement continued.
"Civilian hikers contacted the Fontana Sheriff's Station after they discovered human remains in the Mt Baldy wilderness," the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said in a release.
The search for Sands, who has not been seen since going hiking in the San Gabriel Mountains northeast of Los Angeles in January, was focused on the Mount Baldy area after investigators traced pings from his cell phone to that location.
Poor weather and harsh conditions meant the active search had been mostly dormant until resuming last Saturday.
More than 80 search and rescue volunteers, deputies and staff participated in the search efforts, which were supported by two helicopters and drone crews as volunteers searched in "remote areas across Mount Baldy and conducted aerial search and assessment efforts," according to officials.
