Columbia Valley RCMP along with Search and Rescue are currently searching for a missing person in the Jumbo Pass area.

Louise Baxter, 52, was hiking with a group of five others, but disappeared after taking her dog — a goldendoodle — for a short walk by herself. Witnesses say she was dressed for the conditions, but not equipped for the night.

Search and rescue members from Columbia Valley, Golden, Cranbrook, Kimberley and Creston are on scene along with RCMP Police Dog Service. Searching is being done with the aid of helicopters due to the inaccessibility. The area is also steep and treacherous making searching difficult.

Oh no. Not another missing hiker! Wonder why she decided to take the dog for a short walk away from the group? Maybe the dog saw something and took off and she went after him?
