CARP LAKE TOWNSHIP, MI-- Two Ontonagon County hunters are safe, after they became lost in the woods Friday night.
Troopers from the Wakefield Post were called around 11:45 p.m. to the Silver City area of Carp Lake Township when the men didn’t return home. Troopers tracked them about a mile-and-a-half into the woods and were able to locate the hunters.
The men said they found the deer they shot, but when their flashlight batteries died they decided to build a fire and wait until morning. The two were in good health and were able to walk out of the woods on their own.
