You can google it and find some articles but not much info other than both hunters were hunting mountain goats, and the missing hunters wife is still alive. Tells his name and age also, he was 39 when he went missing.

Good grief, the man would have been 92 now.  Has to be some rugged area there.  Hope the guy died quick and didn't have to lay in pain for a week.  God Bless him.   :pray:
