A 3 year-old<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>female German Shepherd named Beaujet alerted on a spot and dug down 5 feet to where Carson has been buried under snow for nearly 6 weeks. Beaujet’s handler<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>turns out to be part of the extended family/friend network. She said Carson looked handsome and peaceful when Beaujet uncovered him. Our deepest gratitude<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>to the search teams yesterday including another Shepherd named Mika and to all those who have looked from the beginning through this successful discovery<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>of Carson.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We can only speculate that Carson got disoriented when skiing outside runs he was familiar with and got caught in an avalanche. He was found in the vicinity<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>of his cell phone ping. We know that the accuracy of that ping was questionable and you can’t dig everywhere for hundreds of square yards.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thank you for the contributions to the Carson GoFundMe campaign where the goal is to save a life by adding early detection technology to the traditional<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>SAR tools. We have a number of interesting leads toward identifying the latest location technology and figuring out what might be developed and what laws<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>can be modified to allow exceptions for finding a missing person.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>You can actively remember Carson by joining our Cycle for Sight event April 16 in Napa and joining the Carson May Memorial team. There will be a memorial<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>April 24 in Davis per the link on this site.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Even though Carson has been found, please keep the funds, ideas and contacts coming as his creativity, brilliance and tenacity lives into the future.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Love from Carson’s dad and all the family<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>9008259_1456845326.7825_updates<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Beaujet in the snow<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Subscribe to Updates<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Show More<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>DONATE<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>TWEET<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>SHARE<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Carson went missing while skiing at Sugarbowl on January 14th, 2016 and has not yet been found. Traditional search and rescue efforts were monumental,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>but not successful. Several technologies could not be deployed quickly because of privacy limitations, jurisdictional issues, and lack of prompt availability. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Our goal is to ensure that future search teams are aware of, and have quick access to, state of the art SAR technology tools.
