MARBLEMOUNT, Wash. — The search for the young boy who was separated from his father while kayaking on the Skagit River has been suspended.

10-year-old Sage Adams was reportedly last seen July 7 when he and his father were kayaking near Marblemount.

According to the Skagit County Sheriff’s Office, his father fell out of his kayak and Sage continued to float down the river.

Search and rescue crews began searching for Sage the following day and located both kayaks, but not Sage.

After more than 2,000 hours and a week of searching, the sheriff’s office announced that they made the difficult decision to suspend the search.
