November 16,2022: 30-year-old US citizen, Macmillan Anderson, who had gone missing in Himachal’s Dhauladhar Mountain Ranges has been found dead. The Kangra Police was searching for Macmillan and found his body in a gorge in forest area uphill from Naddi on Tuesday.

Macmillan was living in hotel in Naddi area of Dharamsala. He used to go into mountains daily for trekking. He messaged the hotel owners on November 8 that he has got stuck in mountains and was running low on food. Since then he remained incommunicado as his phone got switched off. The hotel owners did not inform the local police and instead started searching for him on their own.

The police was informed  by US Embassy on November 10 that Macmillan Anderson was missing.

Sniffer dogs, local police and a team of local trekkers have been sent into Dhauladhar mountain ranges to trace Macmillan. The dead body of the US trekker was found lying in gorge. It seems that he fell into the gorge and later died due to cold. However, the exact reasons for his death can only be said after the Post-Mortem reports.

 Macmillan’s parents who belong to North Carolina in United States are on their way . The dead body would be handed over to them by police after they arrive in Dharamsala.
