“We are fine [and have] been camping and fishing the last couple weeks,” Nickolas Grunwald messaged to Global News after we reached out on Facebook.

Grunwald, Conrad Johnston Sr. and his 11-year-old son Conrad were reported missing on May 31 by Penticton RCMP.

“Police are wanting to confirm the well-being of all parties, and are reaching out to the public to help locate them,” Const. James Grandy said in a press release Monday afternoon.

Lethbridge Police, by phone, would not confirm with Global News if the trio were missing or safe, saying the information was private and we could not be verified as being with the media.

Grunwald shared two pictures of himself and the Johnson’s with Global News.
