Search crews are still looking for the 27-year-old hunter who went missing on Mount Shavano on Wednesday as of Saturday morning. 'Our team is determined as ever and staying strong,' Chaffee County Sheriff Andy Rohrich said in a post Saturday.
Kaden Sites, who is from Salida, Colo., reportedly went turkey hunting on Mount Shavano on Wednesday around 1:30 p.m. and was scheduled for a doctor’s appointment at 3:45 p.m.His family found his truck near the Blanks Cabin Trailhead after he didn't show for the appointment, officials said. His cellphone, which was dead, was also in the car. Officials now believe he may have been wearing a ghillie suit when he went out to hunt. There are now about 130 searchers in the area according to the Chaffee County Sheriff's Office. 'Weather conditions made searching, particularly aerial, tricky but our team powered through and covered a lot of miles,' sheriff's office officials said in a post Saturday.Sheriff Rohrich asked the community to keep searchers and Sites' family in their thoughts, but asked people to avoid the area. 'Yesterday we did have a few citizens go up to the area to search on their own and our teams had to be diverted to them because they were not on our list,' he said in the post. 'We appreciate all the community’s support and willingness to jump in and help but we do not want our team’s attention on anything other than finding Kaden.” The sheriff's office said additional technical teams have been called in and the search now includes agencies from across the state including the following: Chaffee County Sheriff’s OfficeChaffee County Office of Emergency ManagementChaffee County Emergency Medical ServicesChaffee County Search and Rescue Chaffee County Fire Protection DistrictColorado Search and RescueLake County Search and RescuePueblo County Search and RescueTeller County Search and RescuePark County Search and RescueArapahoe Rescue PatrolAlamosa Search and RescueColorado Department of CorrectionsColorado Parks and WildlifeUnited States Forest ServiceWestern Mountain RescueEl Paso County Search and RescueCrested Butte Search and RescueSaguache County Search and RescueSearch and Rescue Dogs of ColoradoFront Range Rescue DogsSearch and Rescue Dogs of the United StatesMesa County Search and RescueWestern Mountain Rescue Custer County Search and RescueSummit County Search and RescueBoulder Emergency SquadColorado Search and Rescue AssociationSalida Police Department
