CANTON – A snowmobiler reported missing Wednesday afternoon was found hours later, unhurt, on a trail near Canton Point Road.

Game wardens and others began searching for the man when he reportedly failed to return from a snowmobile trip by nightfall, police said.

Shortly after 9 p.m., the man was found near the area where he had been last seen. The man’s identity was not available late Wednesday, but a Maine State Police dispatcher said the man was in good health when he was found.

A group of searchers, headed by Maine Game Warden Dave Chabot, had gathered in North Jay before the man was found.
