From Chaffee SO FB page : A bitter sweet end to the mystery today as Kaden Sites’s lifeless body was found in the wilderness near Tabaguache Creek about 1.5 miles away from where his truck was abandoned. Kaden was found by volunteer searchers and his body was recovered by the Chaffee County Sheriff’s Office, Chaffee County Search and Rescue and the Chaffee County Coroner’s Office.
“Our hearts go out to the Sites family and friends this evening. Chaffee County has lost a wonderful member of our community which has left a void in our hearts. There was always a measure of hope that Kaden would be found alive. We are thankful the family will have some level of closure. Thank you to everyone who joined in the efforts to bring Kaden home. It is such a loving community we have.” -Sheriff Andy Rohrich
The Sites family has been notified. Please keep them in your prayers. A cause of death is not being released at this time pending further investigation. Foul play is not suspected.
