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 know it's a long shot, but here's a 360 panorama I shot on my last trip in 2014.

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.

Re: Missing Hiker and Dog near Donner Pass
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.

Expand the view and concentrate on the water water section only at .29, there is a very slight movement in it.I didn't notice flowing water in the video, but sounds like it in the audio. Could be the stove, not sure.

Re: Missing Hiker and Dog near Donner Pass
April 14, 2014 day scouting trip. I turned around and headed back before reaching the lakes (probably around 6,500'): https://goo.gl/photos/i8iioZYkBFaDLu4n6maverick wrote:If anyone has any pictures/videos taken during early season of the Loch Leven Lakes area, they could be very useful in narrowing down the possible location this video clip may have been taken.
Your help is appreciated! Thank you
***Edit*** Sorry, I posted this before reaching the end of the thread and the GREAT news!

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.
