Search For Mushroom Picker Continues

The search is continuing Monday for a 74-year-old Vancouver woman who has not been seen since Saturday when she was picking mushrooms in Skamania County northwest of Stevenson.  According to the Skamania County Sheriff’s Office, a friend reported 74-year-old Jung VanAtta as overdue from hiking and picking mushrooms on property on Beacon Highlands Road in Skamania, about 15 miles northwest of Stevenson.  The Sheriff’s Office says VanAtta had never picked in the area and was not familiar with the property.  Searchers on Sunday used dog teams, three drones, and a helicopter to aid in the effort, and a reverse 9-1-1 alert was initiated to inform homeowners in the area.
