Search for Winona man who went missing in Yellowstone National Park to resume Sunday

The search for a Winona man who went missing in Yellowstone National Park in September will resume on Sunday, his father confirmed via a GoFundMe.

22-year-old Austin King was last heard from on Sept. 17, when he called friends and family to describe rain, fog, sleet, hail, and windy conditions on Eagle Peak. Officials say he didn’t arrive for his boat pickup near Yellowstone Lake’s Southeast Arm on Sept. 20 after his planned seven-day solo trip to summit Eagle Peak.
