Sgt. Jim Halsey said 17 volunteers of the Douglas Sheriff's Search and Rescue Team and four members of the sheriff's office mounted posse combed the hillside areas surrounding Indian Hills and Jacks Valley on Friday.

He said the search and rescue team would continue their search efforts Saturday. Halsey said foul play is not suspected.

He has gray hair, a long gray beard and blue eyes.
