This is great News a lot of prayers have been answered. I’ll update latter but the big news is he is alive and it appears is walking out of the woods with the search team.

`We have our missing Boy Scout,” said a jubilant National Park Service spokeswoman Tina White.

White said she didn’t have any exact details about where Michael Auberry was found, but that officials first received word he had been found shortly before 11 a.m. within a mile and a half of the camp site.

“Search and rescuers who located him have their hands on him. He is in the care of search and rescue workers,” White said. “Probably the most important thing we heard on the radio is A-1, which means he is on good condition.”

White said she was confident the boy was Michael Auberry. The boy’s parents and rangers were on their way to meet the group, she said.

The radio communication set off a celebration among leaders of several Scout troops waiting for news about the boy. “A lot of tears, a lot of hugs,” White said.
