Local RCMP have stood down Central Okanagan Search and Rescue's search efforts for missing hunter Gordon Solloway.
Search and rescue teams from Kelowna, Penticton and Vernon, along with CASARA fixed wing aircraft, the RCMP helicopter and Mr. Solloway’s family and friends have searched around 4,200 square km east of Kelowna.
The search area expanded from Goudie Road/James Lake to include the area around Big White and McCullough Lake recreational area. With help from VSAR and PenSAR it eventually covered the area between Lavington and Penticton and over to Beaverdell.
The search will resume if additional information is received.
