Home again: Questions abound, but father says Brennan not talking much
For sure, they're glad to have him home.
But there are still questions to which searchers and his family don't have answers. Among them: Where did Brennan spent 90 hours in the Uintas wilderness? Why did he walk away from a Boy Scout camp? And how many searchers did he see before he was found?
But Brennan isn't talking much, said his father, Toby.
"I don't know if he's really ready to tell us," he said. "It's going to take a little while to get everything out."
Brennan was found about noon Tuesday near Lily Lake in the High Uintas. He had been missing since Friday when he apparently became lost while walking from a climbing wall in the East Fork of the Bear River Boy Scout Reservation back to his main camp area.
A storm blew into the search area later Tuesday, and the outcome could have been much worse for the boy.
"I don't think it's coincidence at all (when we found him); I think it was divine intervention," Edmunds said.
At a press conference earlier Wednesday one that Brennan didn't attend because he was sleeping Toby and Jody Hawkins said their son can get very focused.
The two lessons he seemed to focus on during his ordeal were ones his parents taught him: Stay on the trail. Don't talk to strangers.
Unfortunately, the two lessons seemed to be in conflict because he didn't know most of the rescuers looking for him.
