Yahoo, Ernie has been found, just heard it on this morning's news. Apparently he fell down a cliff and became disoriented but made it out to a road on his own and was spotted by a helicopter crew. Great news and a relief for so many of his family and friends.

Heard it on CKNW sportstalk that evening. Made my day and lifted my spirits up.
