RIP Michael [emoji257]

Authorities on Thursday morning recovered the body of a man who was reported missing on Monday after he didn't return from picking mushrooms in the Tillamook State Forest.

Michael Scott Lund, 49, was found Wednesday night about 400 yards from where he was last seen.

Portland Mountain Rescue found Lund's body but the Tillamook County Sheriff's Office was unable to recover it until Thursday because he was about 70 feet down a steep ravine.

Authorities said it appears Lund fell down the ravine. The preliminary cause of death appears to be head trauma.
