SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR responded to Gerlach to conduct a search for an overdue subject driving an 18-wheeler cattle truck from Alturas to Soldier Meadows Ranch. Teams searched through a snowstorm during the night, then into the next day. Areas were checked all the way from Vya to Soldier Meadows Ranch. The subject was located during the afternoon on the second day of searching, walking along a desolate road, looking for help. He was transported back to staging in Gerlach with no medical needs.
