Hello searchers. I've attached a graphic of the area I covered searching for Mr. Petrogorsh yesterday afternoon. I focused on the wooded area north of the park, as the noise from the turnpike and lights might have drawn him that direction. I also checked under all the bridges and most drainages. Much of the area around the Pennypack Creek is near impassable.

There was no active searchers when I was out between 1pm and 5pm. Beth, at the Upper Moreland Police department was helpful, but didn't have much information other than what was posted in the MEPA.

The temps are dropping and rain is moving into the area. If anyone is searching and wants more information what I've covered, hit me up in messages.
