SAR Staff, Hasty Team, and SVU responded from the previous call near Nixon to assist Lyon County in searching for a subject that had been involved in an ATV accident and did not know where he was. As SAR teams arrived at the staging location at the Pilot truck stop, the subject was located by county deputies.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, RAVEN, SVU, and WCSAR responded to an area near MM18 on SR447 to search for a 86yo subject whose vehicle was located off road, about 1/4 mile from the highway. Foot searchers began checking an area from the vehicle towards the highway, while RAVEN worked a circular pattern from the vehicle. RAVEN spotted the subject, deceased, approximately 1/4 mile away from the vehicle in an area that was not being searched by foot teams. The area was secured by SAR personnel.

Hasty, RAVEN, and SVU responded to the Peavine access road to search for two subjects that were stranded in a vehicle near the top of Peavine. RAVEN located the vehicle, just off the road on a very steep drop off. They guided a Hasty vehicle to one of the subjects that was walking out. The Hasty vehicle then went to the vehicle location to assist the second person off the mountain.

SAR Staff, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the entrance road to Trego from SR447 to search for two missing subjects in a VW van. A friend of the subjects had called to report them overdue, and the male subject had texted early in the morning that they had mechanical issues and he wouldn’t make it to work. Cell phone pings were vague at best, so one team was sent to an old mine area off of the road to Trego, with a second destination near the Black Rock Point area. The subjects were reported to be in the area to look for opals, so both of these areas were possible locations. Another team was sent to act as radio relay at the twelve mile entrance to the Black Rock, and the last team was headed to the Black Rock Point area from the twelve mile entrance. Not long after teams were deployed, and the first mine area on the Trego road had been checked, the radio relay team saw the subjects traveling across the Playa, appearing to come off of the Soldier Meadows Road. Teams were able to contact the subjects and learned that they had encountered mechanical issues the day before and had spent the night somewhere off of the Soldier Meadows Road. They were able to fix the problem and got themselves moving again.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the Davis Creek Park area to search for two lost hikers. The subjects had left Spooner Summit earlier in the day with the intention of hiking to Tunnel Creek Station, but became lost in the area of Red House. Initial phone pings placed the subjects just above the fire station at Bowers Mansion, so foot teams were sent to check that location. When nothing was located, ATV’s were sent to the Lakeview subdivision access point for the road to the Red House area. A second set of coordinates were located in the dispatched call, so between these new coordinates and the verbal description from the subjects, they were located on the Pipeline Road, also known as the Tanks Road. Both subjects were cold so extra jackets and blankets were supplied for the transport out to staging.
