9/8/2018 – Overdue Hiker

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, RAVEN, and WCSAR responded to the Mt. Rose Meadows area to search for an overdue female hiker on the TRT who failed to check in at a predetermined time. Douglas County requested Washoe County Search and Rescue’s assistance with this mission. A 4-person HASTY team was dispatched to the last know sighting of the individual and was able to make contact near the Diamond Peak Ski resort. The subject was OK and had sent the contact/check-in message but it failed to reach it’s destination, her mother.
