The Alaska State Troopers have identified a body found in Willow Creek as that of 22-year-old Macklin Stevenson of Anchorage.
Troopers say the report of a body came in around 10:30 Sunday morning. Stevenson’s body was recovered near mile 39 of Willow-Fishhook Road and taken to the State Medical Examiner’s office.
Trooper spokeswoman Megan Peters says that Stevenson appears to have succumbed to the elements.
Next of kin has been notified, and the troopers say foul play is not suspected.
