Meador, 74, was reported missing to the Rock Springs Police Department on October 25 after he did not return from a solo hunting trip. His unoccupied vehicle, a 2013 Chevrolet pickup, was found badly stuck just north of Pine Mountain, south of Rock Springs.
A subsequent three-day search by ground and air units was unsuccessful, as was Saturday’s search.
Sheriff Mike Lowell said that search teams were deployed following a 7:00 AM briefing at the Sheriff’s Office. Participating were sheriff’s deputies, the volunteers, Sweetwater County Search & Rescue, a team from Tip Top Search & Rescue of Pinedale, and a helicopter provided by University of Utah Air Med.
Lowell said the Sheriff’s Office will issue a follow-up release on Sunday.
