MISSOULA — A 25-year-old Utah man missing since Sunday in a wilderness area along the Idaho-Montana border has been found in good condition.
Authorities and family members told KUTV in Salt Lake City and KECI-TV in Missoula that Kaden Laga, of Orem, Utah, on early Friday showed up at a camp set up by searchers.
Laga was on a horseback trip Sunday with members of his family in the Bitterroot-Selway Wilderness when one of the horses went lame. Laga decided to walk out and meet his family at a trailhead. However, he never showed up.
Search and rescue personnel from Montana and Idaho conducted ground and air searches with the help of helicopters and dogs over the last week.
