The male was initially identified as Terry Pann, age 60 from Nathrop, Colorado.

Pann has been the object of an ongoing search for the past 5 days after he was reported overdue after going hiking in the Ice Mountain area, which is located in northern Chaffee County.

The Chaffee County Coroner will transport Mr Pann to the Chaffee County Coroner’s Office and an autopsy will be performed where positive identification will be obtained.

Search efforts have been hampered due to inclement weather for the past 4 days, however the weather broke today and numerous resources were in place to do a much more intense search.

Those participating in today’s efforts were Chaffee Search and Rescue North and South, Park County SAR, El Paso County SAR, Summit County Rescue Group, DFPC Canon City Helitak, DFPC Multi Mission Aircraft and Flight for Life Colorado.

Reach Air Ambulance has also assisted several times over the past SEVERAL DAYS.
