<\/p>\nPinecrest, CA…The search is still on for Charles Duston, 67 years old, 6’1″, 170 pounds. Charles has a cabin in the Haypress\/Eagle Meadow area. He goes to his cabin often for a week at a time. There is no phone at the cabin but he usually ventures out to “telescope peak” for cell service to check in with his wife but she has not heard from him. He tows his snowmobile, parks his vehicle off of Hwy 108 and rides to the cabin when the road is closed due to snow. He was due to return home yesterday(Monday) but never arrived. His vehicle was located on Hwy 108 at the entrance to Eagle Meadow. <\/p>\n
