[pct-l] lost hiker update

[tahoe.cat at verizon.net (Bill & Cathy)]

Hi all, Just an update, groundpounder Bill and Eaglescout Bryan are up in
the Idyllwild area right now, and Bill called me and told me he's seen about
15-20 ground search and rescue people and also a lot of hikers like him
searching, no news yet, will let you know when I hear from him again,  they
are spending tonight at saddle junction and then heading out again tomorrow
to cover a different area in that vicinity,, Bill says were they are is no
snow on the trail, just some patches here and there, but there is a lot on
Taquiz Peak...   Please keep Donovan in your prayers and also all the
searchers.   Thanks  , Cathy ,   groundpounder Bills, Wife, on the home
front.
