SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR responded to Pyramid Lake to search for a child and his father who had been blown out into the lake in the area of Sand Hole Beach along SR446.  The young boy had been floating on a mini cataraft when a heavy winds came through from a passing storm cell and blew him out into the lake.  His father, in a float tube, attempted to catch up to him.  As SAR teams were arriving on scene, Boat 243 from Pyramid Lake SAR got into the area and located the pair.  The Pyramid Lake Police boat was also in the area.  The two subjects were located approximately 500 yards from shore and were towed into the beach where waiting SAR personnel brought them onto shore.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, RAVEN, SVU, and WCSAR assisted WCSO Deputies in searching for a missing 10yo subject in the Lois Allen area of Sun Valley.  Teams searched the neighborhoods, both south and north of the school, along with the Red Peak area.  A relative located the subject in the area of Highlands Ranch Road and returned him to his home.  He evidently had lost his bearings while chasing a pet rabbit.

SAR Staff and Hasty Team responded to the end of Truckee Lane in Fernley to perform the recovery of a vehicle found in a canal.  No occupants were located in or near the automobile.  Dive team members assisted in the removal of the vehicle from the water.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR were requested to assist Storey County in searching for three rock crawlers that had not returned from a trip to Bronco Canyon the previous day.  Teams staged at the Mira Loma pits on Alexander Lake Rd., taking two different routes into the area.  Search teams located the subjects in the canyon – two of the rock crawler rigs had broken down, so they had spent the night with hopes of repairing the vehicles the following day.  One of the subjects was taken back to staging, while the others, along with some assistance from fellow rock crawlers that arrived at the location, were going to fix the mechanical problems and drive the vehicles out.  While traveling back to staging, search teams came across a group of four wheelers who were working to extricate one of their own from a very deep water hole.  The jeep had slid down a small embankment into the water, and was almost completely submerged on the passenger side.  The search teams monitored the removal of the stuck vehicle, making sure they didn’t need more assistance from SAR.  The vehicle was finally removed from its location and all parties left the area.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU and WCSAR responded to the Jumbo Grade area to search for three subjects – two adults and a 1yo child that were stranded in a vehicle with two blown tires.  The cell phone coordinates showed the subjects being on the Aqueduct Road, which matched the description that were being given by the reporting party.  Search teams located the vehicle and transported the subjects back to staging.
