We just took a call shortly before 11pm of a missing hiker going from Suchas, Ga to Neals Gap. He was a day or two overdue. Why on earth do folks wait till late at night to call for help? We passed her along to the right people as we do not coordinate SAR and it was in Ga. It has been sleeting and freezing rain for the last eight hours where he was headed. I feel sorry for him.
I will try and learn more and post what I can.
