SUMMIT COUNTY, Colo. — A person missing from Frisco has been found deceased near a mountain off the North 10-Mile Creek Trailhead in Summit County.
The recovery was underway Tuesday morning in a technical spot near Wichita Mountain, which is just southwest of the trailhead and across Interstate 70 from Frisco's W. Main Street, according to the Summit County Sheriff's Office.
The person had previously been reported missing from Frisco, the sheriff's office said. They were not named.
The trailhead was closed for several hours on Tuesday.
Around 4:30 p.m., the sheriff's office said they had recovered the body, which was in the custody of the Summit County Coroner's Office.
The Summit County Rescue Group assisted in this operation.
"Our hearts are with the family, friends, and loved ones of the individual during this difficult time," the sheriff's office said.
The sheriff's office added that this is not related to the ongoing search for Sean Marquardt, who was last seen in Vail. His vehicle was found at Officers Gulch, which is off of I-70 between Frisco and Copper Mountain.
