On 12-02-2023, the Coos County Sheriff’s Office received a report about a possible lost mushroom hunter.

The Coos County Sheriff’s Office emphasizes planning and preparing for recreational activities. They thank the dedicated Coos County Search and Rescue Team, who volunteered their time and efforts in challenging weather conditions to locate and aid Chalmers. The SAR team displayed exceptional commitment to serving the Coos County community by covering steep, thick terrain in heavy rain and wind.
