A missing hiker was found dead Monday after failing to return from a camping trip, Boulder County officials said.
Based on reports from the family about the hiker’s plans and using information from the man’s Garmin GPS device, search and rescue crews — including ground searchers, dog teams and a helicopter — combed the surrounding area. Rescuers from the Rocky Mountain Rescue Group and a helicopter from the Colorado Department of Fire Prevention and Control returned Tuesday to recover the man’s body and took him to the Boulder County Coroner’s Office, according to sheriff’s officials.
