A Prescott woman who went missing while hiking in Montana has been found unharmed.

Authorities say 23-year-old Madeline Connelly and her dog were rescued after being stranded for six days in the Montana wilderness near Glacier National Park.

She took a wrong turn, and was lost without food. 

Rescuers later airlifted her to safety and helped her reunite with her family.
