SAR Staff, Air Squadron, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the Gerlach area to search for two 17 year old subjects that were stranded in their VW Jetta after visiting the Fly Geyser area. Cell phone coordinates were not useful, so teams were sent to the most likely locations where a vehicle of that nature could become stuck. A search team located the vehicle approximately 1.5 miles southwest of Double Hot Springs, high centered. Search personnel were able to extricate the vehicle and escort the subjects back to a staging location at the 12 Mile entrance to the Black Rock Desert.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, RAVEN, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the Davis Creek Park to search for a subject that was lost. Since cell phone coordinates did not appear to be correct – given the description from the subject of where he had hiked, sending searchers into the mountains – but he was located by a resident southeast of the park who spotted him near their backyard…relatively close to the cell phone coordinates. A Deputy went to the residence and drove the subject back to staging.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR were requested to assist Sparks PD in locating an Alzheimer’s patient that walked away from a memory care facility. Teams were deployed to various neighborhoods and shopping locations in the nearby vicinity. A couple of hours into the search, the subject called the memory care facility from a bar east of Sparks. How he arrived at that location is unknown.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, RAVEN, and SVU responded to Pyramid Lake to assist Pyramid Lake SAR after a sighting of a possible body, floating in the water, was made by a school bus driver passing by an area near Block House on SR446. Although some unrelated debris was located, a body was not found.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR began responding to the N. Virginia entrance to Peavine on the report of a female subject that had driven off the side of the road and was requesting help. Before SAR personnel arrived on scene, Deputies located the subject approximately 2.5 miles up Peavine Road and transported her down to a waiting ambulance.
