Eight-year-old Nante Niemi, who survived two days alone in the Porcupine Mountains, shared in an exclusive interview that he prayed to be found and thought of positive things to stay alive. Despite the experience, he said he's "still going to go camping."
Police have released the identity of an 8-year-old Wisconsin boy, Nante Niemi, who went missing on May 6 while camping with his family in Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park. More than 150 search and rescue personnel, including nine K9 units, are searching a roughly 40-square-mile area on foot. The park has closed the Presque Isle Day Use area until further notice while the search continues. The terrain is very remote and hilly with a lot of standing water due to the time of the year.
