On November 11th at about 4 p.m., Lane County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue responded to the area above Hills Creek Dam for an overdue hunter with medical issues. After several hours of searching, SAR personnel located the hunter and provided initial medical care. He was hypothermic and transported by ambulance to an area hospital.
The hunter’s dog, an older Rhodesian Ridgeback named Sedona, has not been located despite several follow up searches by concerned SAR volunteers, family members, and friends. Please keep watch for Sedona in the area of Hills Creek Reservoir and contact the Lane County Sheriff’s Office at 541-682-4141 if she is located.
