A group of volunteers set out to find the ranger in an region between , Sheep Mountain , and South Corral Peak. Next after investigating, the firm paged out the whole team to the place to search for the missing warrior.

The hunter did n’t have the necessary equipment for an overnight trip in the frigid wilderness, the agency said. Seventeen firefighters searched repeatedly immediately, then the , Colorado Search and Rescue Association  , called in a subsequent staff from several other companies, authorities said.
Another warrior had found the missing warrior by , 12: 20 p. m. Friday, Nov. 22, authorities said.
” While he was cold and hungry, he was okay”, firefighters said.
He was escorted back to the campground by the firefighters who had just given him an injury or illness checkup.
The warrior “had been able to construct himself a comfortable place to sleep at night and was attempting to start a fire with his binoculars,” according to officials.
