The skeletal remains of a man found last fall in western Fremont County likely had been there for two to four years, or even longer, the county coroner said.
Fremont County coroner Randy Keller said a facial-reconstruction model was completed by a specialist in Denver in hopes of finding the next of kin for the man, described as a white male who was 5 feet 4 inches to 5 feet 11 inches tall and likely in his early 20s. Investigators found a surgical repair to the man’s left ankle, where they found two pins still existing.
“Hopefully, we can find a positive on the individual and bring closure to a family out there,” Keller said.
