PARK COUNTY, Mont. - Park County Search & Rescue Foundation reported in a post on Facebook that they searched for an overdue hunter at 9:50 on the morning of November 8.
The hunter left to hunt deer on the Bobcat/Houlihan Trailhead area of the South Fork at around 3:00 Saturday afternoon.
A ground team and three horseback teams worked together to comb the area, with PCSAR Air 1 flying overhead.
One of the horseback teams found the hunter uninured at around 2:30 p.m. He was not injured and had simply decided to spend the night in the field.
Officials remind the public to let someone know when you plan to return if venturing into the backcountry to help prevent unnecessary searches.
