Leslie Reynolds was reported missing last Tuesday night...A dog team located his body Saturday morning in a secluded ravine.

According to the Wolfe County Search and Rescue Team, it’s believed that Reynolds may have slipped coming down an embankment and struck his head before falling into the ravine.
