FRANKLIN BASIN, Idaho — A 14-year-old snowmobiler who went missing was found by search and rescue crews from Utah and Idaho overnight.
The Cache County Sheriff's Office says the boy was with a snowmobiling group when he went missing in an area approximately two-and-a-half miles southwest of Gibson Basin.
Due to the area being along the Idaho-Utah border, search and rescue teams with both the Cache County Sheriff's Office and the Franklin County Sheriff's Office deployed to the Franklin Basin Road Trailhead in Logan Canyon.
On Sunday, the boy's family said he was found and underwent medical treatment.
Crews searched for hours, looking for a yellow snowmobile the teen had been riding and drones were deployed to assist in the search, looking for either the snowmobile, heat signatures, or other signs of life. Pings made to the boy's cell phone received no response.
Temperatures dropping to as low -15°F overnight before the boy was rescued.
