Show Roger Marshall dies of exposure A cougar hunting trip on Sunday in Pine Valley turned into a tragedy when Roger Marshall, 21, of Minersville, died from exposure to the elements, and his cousin, Greg, barely survived a night on the West Desert. The pair were cougar hunting between Indian Peaks and Hamblin Valley, when they became separated about 4:00 p.m'. on Sunday. Greg returned to the truck, planning to go back for Roger, who continued to pursue pur-sue the cougar. Upon returning to the truck, Greg was unable to get It started, and he spent the night in the frigid desert, with temperatures well below freezing. The victim, evidently stayed on the cougar's trail, before becoming disoriented in the dark. He was found about 2 :30p.m. Monday, near Indian Peaks, approximately 16-20 miles from where he was last seen. Roger's brother, Blake, and Dean Eyre, left Minersville Miners-ville Monday morning in search of the two who had not returned.
