Missing Hunter Link Lake area

[dmaxtech]

Anyone in the Link Lk area near Princeton? A buddies friend hunting SE of Osprey/Link Lk has not checked in for over 24hrs. SAR has been notified but if anyone is in the area able to go check his camp. It’s a black ford truck F150 with black enclosed trailer and a black Canam Outlander 2up. His name is Corey. If you pm me I can provide a pin of his camp location.

better safe than sorry I guess, even more so with the snow dump a lot of people likely weren’t prepared for.. but I’m with you, it would be embarrassing if everything was OK but that’s the better alternative than freezing to death because you’re friends thought you were a manly man and gave you an extra day to freeze with an injury.

Yup. No need to be embarrassed. YOU didn’t call them. I’d far rather be able to say “What? You’re looking for ME? Well, you found me and I’m fine. Thank you and goodbye”. The alternative situation where you are actually hurt because you slipped on wet rock and broke your ankle or whatever and were stuck on the mountain is far more dangerous. Just because you are a hunter, it doesn’t make you a survival expert.

Glad your buddie was fine OP.

LOL, Kinda makes me wonder how anyone ever went out of the house for more than a day before they invented cell phones...

Those loved ones at home worried and fretted.
Obviously you have no one to worry or fret about you and would if there is someone they espouse “good riddance to *** ******”

I've seen both side. Buddy reported me missing to the Lillooet RCMP as I was ONE day late showing up for a camping trip!! Had to go into town and say I was ok.
Had a buddy who's friend and son went missing near Red lake. Jumped out of the truck to chase a buck and got turned around. They were gone overnight and everyone was worried sick. Tough call when lives may be on the line.
