I've known Kenny for 33 years..... I have also been involved in many search and rescue  missions as part of various MR groups in various countries and after 16 to 24 hours one is usually looking for a body.

 

As an old friend of Ken I hope he is one of the very small cases found alive after such a long time.

 

Another reality is that a lot of people who go missing on the mountain never wanted to be found.

 

I sincerely hope that is also not the case.

 

If you have some time, are strong on your feet and have 6 hours to give, please report to the MR vehicle on Tafelberg road and lend a hand looking.

 

Search parties resume at 08:30 this morning.

Going out with my son now to search.  Hopefully things turn for the better.

Hoping for some positive news today - cold front coming in tomorrow might hamper search efforts!

Not ideal timing with the cold front coming in. Good luck to all out there searching.

So many questions. 

 

Hope he is found.

 

Very sad.

Very good news. Praying he is found and all is good. 

[dirtypot]

Wow, that's a lot of people searching!  

I was up on TM on Sunday in the mist - it would be a scary place to be lost.  

Hoping he's found soon.

Good luck searchers. Hope they find him alive
