“Shortly before 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 6, the 33-year-old hiker鈥檚 family reported that they were overdue from what was supposed to be a day hike,” the Clackamas County Sheriff鈥檚 Office wrote in a social post. “The hiker was known to be experienced, but was not carrying gear for overnight conditions and was last heard from around 2 p.m. earlier that day.”

Search and Rescue coordinators mobilized multiple volunteer teams alongside Clackamas County Search and Rescue (CSAR) to help find the hiker. Additional help came from the Portland Mountain Rescue (PMR), Pacific Northwest Search and Rescue (PNWSAR) and the Hood River Crag Rats crews. The Oregon National Guard provided air support via helicopter, and the Hood River County Sheriff鈥檚 Office provided a fixed-wing plane to help with the search.
