KANANASKIS, Alta. – RCMP say a hiker reported missing in Kananaksis Country has been found dead.
They say the death is not considered suspicious.
Mounties received a report of a 24-year-old missing hiker in the Rocky Mountain wilderness area west of Calgary just before 10 a.m. Monday.
They alerted Kananaskis Emergency Services, which said a conservation officer was on the way to find the trailhead where the hiker may have started.
Shortly after, the hiker’s vehicle was found and by noon the person was found dead on the western slope of Mount Smuts.
A news release from the RCMP did not say how the hiker died.
