Missing Colorado hiker’s remains discovered after car found near national park peak

The remains of a Colorado hiker were found at Glacier National Park's Reynolds Mountain in Montana on Friday morning, according to a statement from the federal agency.

The remains of a missing hiker at a National Park in Montana were found on Friday.

In a statement, the National Park Service said the body of 32-year-old Adam Fuselier were found at Glacier National Park’s Reynolds Mountain in Montana on Friday morning at 11 a.m.

A search for Fuselier, from Castle Pines, Colorado, was launched on Wednesday after officials say his car was found at Logan Pass, which is the “highest elevation” reachable by a vehicle in the park. He was last heard from on Tuesday afternoon and was supposed to start a climb at Reynolds Mountain that morning.


Rangers were alerted Wednesday morning that the Colorado man was overdue to return.
