4/23/2017 – Missing/Stranded Subjects

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the area of Jungo Rd. between Empire and Gerlach for a SPOT activation approximately 24 miles east of SR447. Teams traveled to the coordinates provided by the SPOT information, and located a father, and his two young daughters that had been out exploring and taking pictures. The driver of the vehicle decided to drive a couple of miles up a dry creekbed, and got stuck in the sand. The subjects were transported back to staging, then transported to their residence in Fernley.
