The team was dispatched at 4 pm for overdue splitboarder who left Bradley Hut at 8 am and had not arrived at Squaw Valley Starbucks for work. 4 skiers, 5 snowmobilers, snowcat and comm van reported to Pole Creek trailhead. 2 skiers got a ride to top of Granite Chief Chair by groomer and headed north to cut for tracks, getting as far as Mountain Meadow Lake. 2 skiers, 5 snowmobilers and cat went up to Bradley Hut, interviewed inhabitants and started following tracks. At about 6 pm it was announced that skier had arrived in Squaw Valley (probably by hiking over Silver Peak) and searchers returned to Command post.
