Tom Batty of Pacific NW Search & Rescue briefs four searchers at the Paradise Park trailhead today before starting a 10-mile hike to the Timberline Trail on the southwest side of Mount Hood. The all-volunteer unit, which includes carpenters, construction workers, office workers and retired businessmen, sent another team up the Hidden Lake trail in hopes of finding two of three missing climbers. Searchers theorize the men who left a fellow climber to seek help might be descending near Zigzag Canyon. They planned to reach 6,000-feet while performing a hasty search.

  • your bravery is awesome

  • Why not combine food, water and a beacon that must be activated into a can tied to smoke bombs and flares drop a few hundred from choppers - about every 1/2 mile in the area where they are thought to be. The climbers can look for the smoke trails in the sky and get the food which they need and then activate the beacon. If they are above the Timberline - it has a 2.5 mi. radious. They are more interested in food than anything.
