Search resumes for lost UO math professor
Thursday, September 18, 2008 | No comments posted.
BLUE RIVER (AP) — A Lane County search team will make another, and probably final, attempt to find Damaing Xu, a University of Oregon math professor missing in the Three Sisters wilderness since failing to return from a hike on Nov. 4.
County search and rescue coordinator John Miller said about three dozen searchers from Lane and other counties will return to the 9-mile-long French Pete Creek drainage area beginning Friday. He said late summer makes for optimal search conditions in the 50 square-mile area.
The search was suspended Nov. 18 because of harsh weather.
