Saturday's Search Efforts For Steve Grunwald

Yesterday's search efforts for Steve Grunwald were hampered by area conditions. Above 10,000 feet experienced winter-like conditions of 8 to 10 inches of drifting snow, 30 degree temperatures, and winds of 50 miles per hour producing windchills of 11 degrees. This made visibility and probability of detection low to non existent.  https://www.nps.gov/romo/learn/news/saturday-s-search-efforts-for-steve-grunwald.htm
