GW- I pray that you never are put in their position. You seem very immature to post all this nonsense without actually checking any facts.

If anyone actually bothers to read the newspaper articles out there you will
see holes all over what the police officers have been saying. They said
they were still searching for him and the search was scaled back , when in fact
it had been permanently called off. No one is looking for him right now and
that explains why the family is putting this out there.

According to the articles I am reading they have consulted medical experts and
climbers to ensure that those who try for this are following proper regulations.
There are certain rules in place so not just anyone can try for this. The
lead organizer is a big time doctor so I doubt he would try to risk anyone's
health and he obviously knows better.

If you read carefully the latest post by them, it is now offered "dead or alive".

If you look at some of the family tweets you will realize that there has been
a lot of problems with authorities on the search. They claimed they had searched
his car at the beginning when in reality they hadn't until pushed by the family to
double check and that is when they found his laptop which clearly marked the
area he was exploring. The cops messed up on that and numerous times they
have mentioned an area had been searched when later they admitted it hadn't.

He is a master corporal from the military and has been trained in such conditions
so the family believes he could be alive. Either way a family wants their
loved one back so that is why the reward now says "dead or alive".The reports
say a male voice was heard at one point but they did not have enough man
power to look carefully and then the next day they call off the search.
The search should have been expanded and not cancelled at that point.

They are not asking people to risk their life and that is why only experienced
hikers and climbers would be eligible for this.

Please do not put a negative twist on this. I feel for the family and what
they are going through. It's horrible and not to mention being foreigners
in an area where the police keep saying one thing and then another.
