WALLACE — The recent death of a hunter in southern Shoshone County has raised questions about the Shoshone County Sheriff’s Office procedures for handling lost or missing people in the surrounding wilderness. 

On the morning of Nov. 6, the sheriff’s office received a call about two overdue hunters — an older man and a woman — who had been hunting in the Clarkia region.
