A woman has been banned from Wyoming’s Grand Teton National Park for five years and fined $17,600 for providing false information to authorities regarding a missing hiker.
The hiker, Cian McLaughlin, has been missing since June 8, 2021.
Heather Mycoskie, 40, a Utah resident formerly of Jackson, Wyo., is said to have provided a detailed but false account of McLaughlin’s presumed whereabouts in the hope that authorities would not abandon search efforts.
