Brennan Hawkins, the 11-year-old Bountiful boy missing since Friday night in the Uinta Mountains, has been found.

Searchers reportedly found the boy alive just before noon at Lily Lake, about 1 1/2 miles northwest of the East Fork of the Bear River Boy Scout Reservation, about 35 miles south of Evanston.

A medical helicopter was dispatched from LDS Hospital early Tuesday afternoon to retrieve the boy, who was reportedly in good condition, according to KUTV 2News.

Brennan disappeared from the Boy Scout camp Friday night. A massive search involving as many as 3,000 volunteers combed the area from dawn to dusk each day since.
