LITTLE ORLEANS, MD (WTAQ) - A Lake Geneva man missing for 10 days has been found dead in a state forest in Maryland. State natural resources police said 75-year-old James Wilson died from exposure to the elements after he left his mini-van – which got stuck near the Potomac River at Little Orleans in western Maryland. A search team found Wilson’s body about three-fourths-of-a-mile from his vehicle in a steep ravine. Authorities said Wilson left Lake Geneva on November 11th – and he was supposed to arrive in Delaware the next day, but didn’t. He was reported missing Thursday, five days after he left. Officials said Wilson might have gotten disoriented or confused.
