A New Sharon man who was missing four days last week is recovering at a rehabilitation center in Franklin County. Michael Altmaier, 75, fell off a cliff and hit his head while walking a trail at Mt. Blue State Park in Weld, his brother Robert Altmaier said. Michael slipped on some moss and did what he could to stay alive with no food, including drinking water from sources, Robert said. He walked around each day hoping he would see something, find someone.
