Happy Ending to Search for Wollaston Lake Elder

There were some tense moments yesterday for the family of a Wollaston Lake elder.

73-year-old Abel Denechezhe left the community by snowmobile on Wednesday for a hunting trip on an island on the nearby lake.

However, a search was called yesterday after Denechezhe didn’t report back as scheduled the previous evening.

Denechezhe was eventually found safe and sound by a friend of the family on an island north of the community.
