A missing hiker from Dallas who disappeared Saturday morning while hiking east of Crystal Mountain in Larimer County, was found today at about 1 p.m.
The man, 76-year-old Jimmy Carter, is “OK and is with relatives,” said Kathleen Messick, spokeswoman for the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office.
Carter and his brother were camping in the area for the weekend.
Carter told his brother at around 8:30 a.m. Saturday that he was going for a short hike and would be back by noon.
When he didn’t return by 6 p.m., his brother called the Sheriff’s Office to report him missing.
About 30 new searchers this morning joined more than two dozen people already on the ground.
Among those involved were search-dog and ATV teams.
