It may or may not be related to this missing woman, but HCSO dispatch just broadcast a “Pager 30” alert, which indicates there’s been a call-out for the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue volunteers for a search/rescue. The same group that assisted in the successful search for the 14-year-old girl in the Ridgewood area Tuesday night.

Doesn’t sound like Humboldt S&R went to the Mendocino search. From McKinleyville I’ve been hearing them, but very scratchy, all afternoon. Talk is mentioning narrow roads, Snow-Cat, and places to turn around, but from where I am it’s probably in northeastern Humboldt or possibly adjacent (or high elevation) areas of Del Norte or Trinity County. Just guessing though.
