A 74-year-old woman remains missing even after multiple helicopter flights and land searches in the French Hill area of Gasquet in Del Norte County, according to the last report from the US Coast Guard at 8:07 p.m.

Rainfall and chilly weather have complicated the search for the missing woman.

The woman and her daughter went missing Friday.

On Saturday afternoon, the daughter was located and a US Coast Guard helicopter crew hoisted her to safety. See the embedded video below.

Why in the world would they separate if they were lost?

Maybe they separated before they were lost to improve the efficiency of their mushroom hunting.

The wrong mushroom can be fatal.

The right mushroom can turn you into a deer.

Lol, from the person that could easily turn off the comments section since they stopped being useful years ago and now 99% of the comments are useless and at least 25% are speculation/jokes about deceased, missing or injured people. 10% are sheer hatred. Don’t act like your some innocent person reading these comments. You run a platform of hate in your comment section.

You like the clickbait because you sell ads based on your article activity levels. These comments mean more clicks because people come back for the comment section(one read could equal multiple clicks just to return to a debate in the comments). Only complete morons would believe your not OK with the comment section. Turn the comments off if you give the tiniest shit about the people you write about and their loved ones.

I am following this as closely as I can and putting word out on Facebook for any possibility of volunteer search and rescue in the Southern Oregon Northern California area. My 16 year old daughter is best friends with Sydney. We live in Poulsbo. I have high hope she will be found safe. Much love to you and your family

I had a dream 2 nights ago about a heavily forested valley split by a river. I was gliding through the air heading up stream into the darkness…..I’m thinking she’s down by the river or creek…….

My dream looked similar to the images above…..I saw the coast guard fly fast over our house in Trinidad to the north 2 evenings ago. My first thought was they’re going to rescue someone. Then the next day I read the article about the lost mushroom picker north of where I live and the helicopter was heading in that direction. I dreamt of flying through the valley over the creek or river into darkness Before I knew there was a lost person in the forest….I have a history of clairvoyant dreams……just trying to help ❤️

If she went North, she was bound to run into the Smith River which is flowing at nearly 3,000 CFS right now.

♥️Thank you…. There’s definitely power in us praying and believing together for this woman. I’m pretty sure she would be appreciative. I know I would want someone to start a prayer chain if it were me lost out there. Send HOLY Angels to her God.

📖 Matthew 18:19-20 KJV
19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven 20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

(As long as it’s God’s will and a Godly request)

Awwe..I was praying for her. I’m hoping She found a safe little spot, hidden from animals..and somehow has water. Didn’t she have a cell phone??

I wouldn’t imagine the availability of water would be a problem, rather the opposite.

I don’t have any conspiracy theory; i have no theory at all.
But i do think there’s something very strange about this whole affair.
I really hope they find the lady. And soon!
