Father and son found after
extensive search in Big Horns
BY KYNLI SMITH
Search efforts were
successful in locating two
missing hunters outside
of Hyattville in the early
morning hours on Wednes-
day, Oct. 21.
Larry Wood, 53, of
Casper and son Levi Wood,
16, left their camp around
3 .p._m. on Sunday. After
nearly 12 hours missing
from camp, members of
their hunting party noti-
fied the Big Horn County
Sheriff’s Office on Monday
afternoon. South Big Horn
County Search and Rescue
personnel were first to re-
spond to the scene shortly
after.
SAR teams searched
through the night and
through dense fog, accord-
ing to Big Horn County
Sheriff Ken Blackburn.
“The scary thing is,
they left camp with noth-
ing more than light jack-
ets,” Blackburn said.
Blackburn also said
that the inclement weath-
er conditions hampered
search efforts early Tues-
day morning and into the
Police Report
rest of the day and night.
Civil Air Patrol also
launched throughout
the day on Tuesday, and
forward-looking infra—
red (FLIR) cameras were
launched with the plane.
FLIR are used to detected
thermal heat and are typi-
cally used at night or in the
fog. According to Black-
burn, the settings for the
FLIR were set to detect hu-
man body temperatures.
‘The weather has made
it more difficult in search
efforts on the ground and
in the air,” Blackburn said.
Search teams from
North Big Horn County re-
sponded to the scene Tues-
day along with responders
from Washakie and John-
son counties. The Unit-
ed States Air Force and
Homeland Security were
also called in to help with
search efforts.
After searching a 100-
mile radius, the two were
found miles from their
camp off Cold Springs
Road around 12:10 am.
on Wednesday, said Black-
burn. They were reunited
with their family.
“It was a good end-
ing,” Blackburn said.
“The Air Force helped lo—
cate them miles from their
camp. They both were suf-
fering from exposure, but
required no major medi-
cal treatment. Shortly af-
ter they were found they
were reunited with their
family.”
According to Black-
burn, the two kept moving
to keep themselves warm.
Blackburn thanked
South Big Horn County
Search and Rescue, North
Big Horn County Search
and Rescue, Washakie and
Johnson Search and Res-
cue, the United States Air
Force, Homeland Securi-
ty and Civil Air Patrol for
their efforts in this suc-
cessful search.
“Our volunteer search
and rescue teams are up all
day and night. I can’t tell
you how proud I am of our
teams out there,” Black-
burn said. “Everyone who
responded went above and
beyond the call of duty. Our
hats are off to all of them.”

ceived the following calls for the week of Oct.
19 26:
Oct. 20: An individual living near Lovell re-
ported receiving a phone call threatening
to “serve papers” on him if he did not pay
money to the caller. This is a common scam
and the sheriff’s department should be no-
tified if this type of call is received.
Oct. 21: A person residing near Lovell re-
ported a “whole herd of cattle” in his front
yard. The owner of the livestock was
contacted.
Oct. 22: A rescue team assisted a fami-
ly that had run out of gas in the Big Horn
Canyon recreation area.
Oct. 23: Sheriff’s deputies are investigat-
ing a report of harassing text messages re-

man and transported him by personal
vehicle to North Big Horn Hospital with

tor troubles,” who were recreating on a
boat near Horseshoe Bend. The boat was
towed in safely with the help of rescue
crews on the scene.
Oct. 25: Robert James Johnston was ar-

ing home to find his house ransacked. The
matter is under investigation.’
