A missing Utah boy who became separated from his Boy Scout group in the backcountry of western Wyoming has been found unharmed.
Garrett Hunter, 13, of Draper, who has autism, went missing on Saturday morning somewhere between 1,000 Island Lake and Mary’s Lake. He was found in good condition on Sunday night, according to the Sublette County Sheriff’s Office.
Volunteers hiked out with the boy on Monday morning, and he was reunited with his family.
