I just got a call from Wendy Montgomery. Mick Maguire (some of you might know him) hasn't returned from an early morning run. Police is asking for capable runners to help in the search. ]
Anybody able to help and cover trails in a specific area is asked to check in with authorities at Mick's house at 1641 Dempsey Road in North Vancouver. Before setting out, please pack trail essentials, especially space blanket and flash light.
Here is a photo of Mick (centre):

Hanes Valley Adventure?
Sounds like he may have had a similar adventure to the one I had last fall.
Hopefully he was smarter than me and brought a headlamp. Bushwacking in the dark on the North Shore is about as much fun as wading down a frigid Lynn Creek.
He has been found
Wendy just called with the update that Mick has been found on the west side on Lynn Creek. They haven't retrieved him yet and no words on injuries or what happened, but at least they know where he is. Thanks everybody who helped with the search and/or passed the word on.
Update from Jordan Back's
Update from Jordan Back's twitter account: NSR made voice contact with somebody, not confirmed if it is Mick....Let's hope it is!
No news!
Just talked to Wendy again. No word yet. Her group has been out on the trails as directed by NSR. They were just heading back to the above address to regroup. Trails are very dark, slippery and temps have dropped.
I will post an update as soon as I hear anything.
