A 60-year-old hiker from North Carolina was found alive days after she disappeared along the Appalachian Trail in Connecticut, officials said Friday.
Marta Renee Bowen was located several miles south of where she was last seen at her campsite on the Appalachian Trail in Kent, Connecticut, Paul Copleman, spokesman for the state’s Department of Environmental Protection told the News-Times, a Danbury-based paper.
"The missing adult female has been safely located and is being treated by emergency services," Connecticut State Police Troop L in Lichfield wrote on Facebook. "We thank everyone for the help!"
Can't help but to think of Geraldine Largay and that tragic end to a similar story.
