I know it's a long shot, but here's a 360 panorama I shot on my last trip in 2014.
Anything could help, thank you. One of the moderators on the Rock Creek message board lives in the area, she was planning to go to the area this weekend, maybe she will have something to post later on.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Thank you for the panorama video. Looks like it could be close to the same location. I didn't notice flowing water in the video, but sounds like it in the audio. Could be the stove, not sure.
Please send the panorama to Placer County, and it may be of help.
Thank you.

Expand the view and concentrate on the water water section only at .29, there is a very slight movement in it.

Your help is appreciated! Thank you
April 14, 2014 day scouting trip. I turned around and headed back before reaching the lakes (probably around 6,500'):

I'm still rather convinced that you can achieve more than you've ever dreamed of if you just lower your standards.

California National Guard is flying Wed and Thurs using Forward Looking Infared technology (FLIR) to assist with the search. CA National Guard is very experienced with SAR missions and has assisted with a number of SAR missions. Let's hope they spot him so the folks on the ground can get to him and his dog.
