Volunteer searchers find body of woman missing for a month in Harney County

Volunteers found the remains of 29-year-old Kaylee Birt on Saturday in Harney County, Oregon, where she went missing in early April.
Birt disappeared after last being seen leaving a store in southern Oregon while traveling from Klamath Falls back to her hometown in Iowa.
The search, conducted by authorities and volunteers on foot, horseback, and with aircraft, covered rugged desert terrain before officials ended coordinated efforts on April 10.
Officials did not disclose the exact location or cause of death, but Birt's family expressed gratitude for the community's extensive support during the search.
The discovery closes the month-long mystery, highlighting challenges in searching remote areas and valuing volunteer contributions to missing person cases.
