A partner of the missing teen called from the Adirondak Loj trailhead to report that the pair had become separated a when the other hiker descended Iroquois Peak. It turned out, several hours later, the young man was near the summit of Algonquin Peak in waist-deep snow, becoming lethargic, and dozing off.
