The team is returning from an early evening call out to search for a missing hunter. We were called out at 5:30 to search for a hunter that was separated from his partner. The subject was located around 9:00PM in steep, densely forested terrain loaded with deadfall. The subject was in good health and spirits. Tonight was another example of subjects making good decisions once they realized they were in trouble.
