8/23/2016 – Overdue Subjects

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR began responding to the Gerlach area to search for an overdue couple that were supposedly hunting in an area near Vya. As teams were heading to Gerlach, some background checking was done by SAR Staff and discovered that they were actually hunting in the area of Leadville Canyon and were not to return until the next day. Fortunately, the missing couple came into cell phone reception and talked to SAR Staff, confirming that they were not overdue. SAR response was cancelled.
