It's still preliminary information, but if true it's great news!

I'm curious to hear how far the young man wandered. And how many, if any, different trails or roads he crossed.

Listening to the news conference live now. Sounds like it is confirmed. Glad to hear he seems to be OK. Look forward to hearing his story.
 
Very, very good!!! I read this late last night and had trouble falling asleep thinking about it. I love a happy ending.
 
Fantastic news. Absolutely brilliant, I'm so relieved for this kid and his poor parents. Well done to the search and rescue and everyone involved.

I got "lost" in the woods on a Scout trip once. Scoutmaster split us up into 2 groups to go on a long hike through the woods, then meet up back at the campsite. His son took 5 or 6 Scouts, and he took myself and another Scout. Neither group had a compass or a flashlight. After hiking for over an hour, Scoutmaster discovered that he was lost. Tried calling out "Hello!" until he could hear the other group calling back . . . they were at least a half mile away. F*cker panicked and ran, screaming "HULLO!!!" through the woods at a full run, leaving us both behind. We were trying our best to keep up, but I twisted my ankle on a root and was ditched.

Well over two hours later I managed to find my way back to the campsite. I had been yelling for most of that time and heard nothing. The sun had just gone down and I thought I was in serious trouble. Finally, I hear voices. They'd heard me yelling for over 20 minutes as I wandered lost through woods I'd never been in before, and thought it was "funny" to pretend they didn't hear me.

On another outing a Scout leader's son defecated on a sleeping Scout. His punishment? He had to take the kid's sleeping bag home and launder it. Scouts would regularly fight and steal and smoke cigarettes and chew tobacco and play with their dicks. I finally was allowed to quit after our new Scoutmaster asked everyone to "carve a dildo."

We were speculating last night if this is what had happened. Didn't go on the hike = not happy. It's a short step from that frame of mind to "Goin' home."

I was driving in the Big Bear area once and came on a kid hitchin' in the middle of nowhere. He was eight miles from the YMCA camp with 117 more to go to get home. We looked at the map together, and he decided to accept my offer to drive him back to camp.

As for Scout leaders who engage in/tolerate inappropriate behavior, take it to your local Council. They will act - pronto!
