This is very bizarre, him running away from his friends - I hope they locate him quickly.
Blue Mountain has a lot of forested areas, farmland, and small bodies of water - and of course - Georgian Bay...

Elias is still missing.

There has been a severe heat warning for the last couple of days, and Collingwood/Blue Mountain region are currently under a significant severe storm warning with possibility of hail/tornado.

I really hope he is safe and sheltered somewhere.
