Uh, Oh. A Friend's Aunt

Worried:

The Alpine County Sheriff’s Office reported Monday that it was still searching for a 71-year-old woman who was last seen walking away from her campsite near Lake Alpine about 2 p.m. Thursday.

A media release described Rosalyn Saxenmeier as 5 feet 1 inches tall, 130 pounds., with short red hair and glasses. She has no known medical issues but may suffer some memory impairment, according to the statement. Her campsite was at the east end of Lake Alpine.

Agencies assisting Alpine County with the search include search and rescue teams from Calaveras, Tuolumne, El Dorado, Marin, Contra Costa and Placer counties, the California Office of Emergency Services and the Bay Area Mountain Rescue Unit.

Deputy Rob Lyons from Tuolumne County says that anywhere from 30 to 60 personnel are searching, as well as about five marine enforcement personnel searching the lake.
