Overdue hunter found safe in Crowsnest Pass area

A hunter who’d been reported overdue earlier this week in southwest Alberta has been been found safe by Crowsnest Pass RCMP.

The hunter’s family notified police Tuesday night (Nov. 26) that the 48 year old Pincher Creek man was out hunting that afternoon, but had not been heard from for several hours.

The man was reported to be an experienced outdoorsman, however he didn’t turn up when RCMP searched the area.

Another coordinated search was conducted Wednesday and the man was located.

The missing hunter was found in the Beaver Mines Lake Road area. He told the search team that he was stranded overnight due to his vehicle breaking down.

I started my radio career in 2015, shortly after graduating from Lethbridge College. I have a very strong passion for local news. Proudly born in 1994, I grew up most of my life in Sylvan Lake, AB and I've lived in the Lethbridge since 2012. I'm a below average golfer on a good day, I take as many hiking trips to Waterton as possible in the summer and I love my two cats, Outlaw and Jynx, and my dog, Maverick, more than most people I know. I look forward to providing accurate, timely news coverage in southern Alberta for plenty of years to come!
