[QUOTE="hillbilly beef man, post: 1173705, member: 4786"] We went through the search part of this with a missing family member a couple months ago. I learned more in two days than I ever wanted to learn about search and rescue. I learned that asphalt is the hardest mediam for a dog to track on, even harder than a creek according to the dog handlers. I also learned that infrared is usuless in the summer in the woods. The trees hold in too much heat making it impossible to tell any difference between woods and a person. The THP pilot said that he could pick up rabbits in the woods after the leaves had fallen, but could not pick up a cow while the leaves were still on the trees. The main reason they brought it out is see if maby she was in a pasture or had built a fire. I had thought before this if you had dogs and a helicopter you could find anyone, but this was not the case with her. Someone stumbled across her and she ended up being fine by the grace of God.
