A 70-year-old hiker who goes missing while on a remote island in Lake Superior is found and rescued after nearly a week, authorities say. NBC reports that the U.S. Coast Guard and Michigan police participate in the search and ultimately locate him.
Both outlets describe the ordeal as taking place in remote woodland conditions on a large island in the middle of the lake. CBS notes that search and rescue teams have been searching for about a week and that hope had begun to fade before the hiker is located. The reporting focuses on the length of time he is missing and the late-stage nature of the recovery. NBC emphasizes the coordinated roles of federal and state responders, while CBS highlights the point at which the hiker is found after a week away from view.
Details about the circumstances of how he became lost and his condition after rescue are not included in the provided excerpts.
