Mother and children found near the Rogue River waving an umbrella

(GRANTS PASS) - This afternoon, December 4th, at about 1:45 PM, Search & Rescue officials were notified that a vehicle and a female waving an umbrella were spotted by a helicopter search crew near the Rogue River in the area of Bear Camp Viewpoint off Bear Camp Road. This location is near the Curry / Josephine County line in Josephine County.

The helicopter was able to land and verified that the mother and two children were alive. The father reportedly was not with the vehicle. Additional search crews and resources are being diverted to the area to help try and locate the father.

The family failed to return to San Francisco from a trip to the Pacific Northwest. They were in the Portland area on Saturday, November 25th, with friends, and left enroute to Gold Beach to stay at the Tu Tu Tun Lodge.

The family never arrived, did not return home to San Francisco, and no one heard from them in over a week.

The condition of the mother, 30-year old Kati Kim, and daughters 4-year old Penelope and 7-month old Sabine, is not available but reports are encouraging. They were flown to a separate location from where they will be transported to a local hospital to be evaluated for treatment.

More information will be relayed as it is reported.
