The single-engine Cessna went down in Cottonwood Canyon, about six miles southwest of Morgan.
The plane had been reported overdue about 7 p.m. Thursday on a flight originating at the Mountain Green Airport and heading toward eastern Wyoming.
Bad weather prevented the Civil Air Patrol from putting its own aircraft up late Thursday.
