TOWNDSHIP D, Maine (WGAN) Maine Game Wardens say they’ve located the body of a hiker who went missing on the Appalachian Trail.
Wardens say the body of 63-year-old Jeffrey Aylward of Plymouth, Massachusetts was found shortly after 10:00 a.m. Monday by a game warden in Township D near Rangeley. His family reported him missing on Saturday, as they had not received any communication from him.
Haylward was found dead in his tent about 50 yards off the trail, after hikers reported seeing the tent.
Game wardens have no reason to suspect Aylward’s death is suspicious, as he did have a history of recent health issues.
