At the time, weather high on the mountain was deteriorating with winds gusting 40 to 50 mph.
Searchers did not know what route he planned to take down from the summit. Park rangers were using spotting scopes to look for him along the various descent routes.

“It’s a little cooler than we’d like it if we’re going to be in the water,” Johnson said. “Of course, we’re going to be along the edges of the water. You’re going to get wet. You’re going to get a little cool.”
Johnson says the conditions aren’t ideal, but they’re not anything teams can’t handle.
“There are different types of missions – some water, some land,” Johnson said. “We’ve had a variety of different situations we’ve been in.”
Around 7:00 AM Saturday morning, crews were out in 37-degree weather, about ten degrees below average. And wind speeds weren’t kind either, with some winds gusting up to 30 miles per hour in some spots. But crews say they’re prepared for the changing conditions.

43 year old, University of Wyoming professor Craig Arnold had been missing in Japan since 
April 26, 2009 as he was exploring the Japanese island Kuchino-erabu for a book he planned to write on the world’s active volcanos. It was initially though that Arnold might be injured, but still alive. However, that hope soon died once a search team announced that a trail discovered the previous day showed signs that Arnold suffered a leg injury, then fell from a steep cliff to his death soon afterward.
Award-winning poet Craig Arnold, who went missing in Japan in late April, is presumed to have died after a fall, his employer, the University of Wyoming, announced Friday. The university had established a fund to try to find Arnold after Japanese authorities ended their search.
Japanese End Search for Craig Arnold; Poet’s Trail Down Volcano Found Next to Steep Drop, But No Body Found
Arnold’s footprints were found going up the path to the mouth of the inactive volcano, and in the last few days, rescue teams found his tracks near a steep incline, where he may have fallen.
The island is remotely populated by only a few hundred residents and is densely wooded with deciduous trees and bamboo.

41 year old legally blind hiker, Kenneth Knight, was found safe and in good condition around 5 p.m. Saturday, May 2, 2009 after having gone missing along the Appalachian Trail in Virginia. According to reports, Kenneth Knight, an editor for Backpacking Light set a fire to attract attention, then was met by firefighters who were responding to the brush fire. It was several miles from where he was last seen.
A legally blind hiking magazine editor who went missing along the Appalachian Trail in Virginia was found Saturday in good condition, authorities said.
Kenneth Knight, 41, of Ann Arbor, Mich., was found around 5 p.m. Saturday near Snowdon, said Randy Sutton, a spokesman for the Blue Ridge Parkway. Knight was last seen several miles away Sunday. Friends reported him missing when he failed to meet up with his hiking group and then missed his flight home Wednesday.
Knight was found near the John’s Hollow shelter, at least five miles from the Punchbowl Mountain shelter where he was last seen.
Knight was being taken to a local hospital, but Jordan said he did not think Knight was injured.
“I think he’s probably pretty tired, hungry and dehydrated, but nothing that I know of other than that,” Jordan said.
