BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Authorities have called off a search for a two-year-old boy who wandered off from his family's campsite near Timber Creek Reservoir.

The search for Deorr Kunz was called off Sunday after search and rescue members were unable to locate the boy after surveying a two-mile radius of the campsite. It remains unclear whether the search might be resumed later.

At one point there were more than 150 people involved in the search after the boy's family reported him missing Friday afternoon. A helicopter, search and rescue team, search dogs, Lemhi County staff, Salmon Police Department staff and volunteers had all been searching the area for Kunz.

The boy has blonde bushy hair and was wearing a camouflage jacket, blue pajama pants and cowboy boots.
