LAKE GEORGE, COLO. (AP) -- Search teams are resuming the hunt for a second boater missing at Eleven Mile State Park west of Colorado Springs.

Authorities haven't identified the missing person, but they have already recovered the body of a 62-year-old woman, and they say she had gone fishing with her husband.

The woman was identified as Susan Christiansen. Her husband is Mitch Christiansen, a former candidate for mayor of Colorado Springs.

Colorado State Parks spokeswoman Deb Frazier says the search will resume on Thursday.
