SAR Staff, Hasty Team, RAVEN, SVU, WCSAR, and WOOF were requested by Sierra County to assist in searching for a missing subject with dementia that had been camping with a friend in the Dog Valley area. Dog handlers and foot teams searched the area around the campsite while 4×4’s, and ATV’s searched area roads. The subject was located under some brush and dense foliage, not far from the campsite. He had been missing for approximately 15 hours, but was in relatively good shape. He was transported to an ambulance at the staging area on the Dog Valley Road from Verdi.
