Is this correct? Hopefully this link will help others.

As close as we tell, yes, that is correct. Thank you!

Those are the coordinates that were sent out by Garmin as to his location. Emergency Services and a ranger have been dispatched but he has not been found yet. His coordinates were sent out at 13:30 EST

 

[AdventureWithDanan]

ALL CLEAR!! He was just found, not hurt, just trapped! He is riding again

Now that we have the good news here's my concern with this post:

I can't copy and paste or link any of the location information. In doing the three words, I tried it four times before I got it right. And since I didn't even know what state this was supposed to be in, I then visually compared the coordinates just to be sure.

Thank you for your help!

damn...nice to see how quick OB is to help folk in need!

a lot of the threads and posts seem like useless banter sometimes, but nice to see that behind the scenes there is some serious speed and horsepower when needs be.
i dont expect to get jammed up...but nice to know there is legit help and concern from @Michael and others if things go south.
very cool!

Thank you! It is equally as nice to have you recognize the positive. We’ll continue to work very hard to strengthen that support.
