SNP Skyline Drive Search And Rescue

[birdoffire7]

For those of you along the Shenandoah National Park - Is anyone else monitoring the search and rescue of the person from NJ that went missing south of the Luray 211 entrance? I already had NPS and Forestry info in my SDS100 as a FL, but was wondering if anyone is picking up any national search and rescue channels that I should add in under Sentinel? If you have been listening to the chatter, what have you been hearing? I just turned my scanner on after working today and have been picking up chatter on the Loft Mountain frequency.

For those of you that haven't heard about it, here is info from Skyline Drive's FB page:

The search for Ty Sauer, an 18 year old male continues in Shenandoah National Park. Mr. Sauer was last seen last night near mile 35 on Skyline Drive. Trained search and rescue professionals and support staff, as well as two dog teams are assisting with the operation. Mr. Sauer is 6’3, 187 pounds and was wearing a blue hoodie, blue pajama pants, and white tennis shoes when last seen. If you believe you may have seen Mr. Sauer, please call 1-800-732-0911.

I was hearing search parties in late afternoon heading to trails in the vicinity of Sperryville.

Unfortunately, I just read that his body was located yesterday afternoon just outside the park's boundary in Rappahannock County. No cause of death given at this time. The people that I heard being directed to that area may have coming for the recovery or investigation.
