Missing Hikers
One in Colorado

Larimer County Search and Rescue was called at 6:35 p.m. Saturday to locate 76-year-old Jimmy Carter of Dallas, Texas, who has been hunting in the area for the last 20 years. Carter and his brother were camping in the Crystal Mountain area for the weekend. Carter left for a short hike at 8:30 am.m. Saturday and expected to return by noon.

When Carter wasn’t back by 6 p.m., his brother called the sheriff’s office to report him missing.

Carter was last seen wearing an orange cap, a green/orange reversible vest and blue jeans.
Update: Monday Mr Carter was found alive and well.

One in New York
ALBANY, N.Y. - Forest rangers are searching for a 71-year-old hiker from California missing for a week in the central Adirondacks.

The state Department of Environmental Conservation is asking other hikers or hunters who have gone out recently near Indian Lake in Hamilton County whether they have seen Frederick Gillingham of Camarillo, Calif.

Lets hope they make it out OK.
