Rescue crews discovered the body of Lucas Macaj on Thursday on Mills Glacier, near the base of Lamb's Slide. An initial report indicates that Macaj may have taken a significant fall.
Macaj was reported missing on Sunday after not returning from a hike up Longs Peak. He had texted a friend around 1 p.m. to say he has reached the summit.
Rescue efforts began Monday morning and were hindered Tuesday due to inclement weather.
The body was transported to the Boulder County Coroner's Office which will investigate and release the cause of death.
