Search efforts continued through the weekend for Chad Pallansch in Rocky Mountain National Park. Search teams included ground searchers, dog teams and a State of Colorado Department of Fire Prevention and Control (DFPC) drone team. A DFPC helicopter assisted efforts by inserting ground teams and searchers were onboard the aircraft conducting aerial reconnaissance. Recent efforts were focused on areas around Black Lake, Lake Powell, Stone Man Pass, Chiefs Head Peak, McHenry’s Peak, Mount Alice, and surrounding ridgeline areas. Search efforts have not provided further clues at this point. Investigations are ongoing and NPS Search and Rescue Team members continue to review aerial photographs and drone footage.

整个周末，人们持续在落基山国家公园搜寻查德·帕兰施。参与搜寻的有地面搜救人员、搜救犬队伍，以及科罗拉多州消防与防控局的无人机团队。该局的一架直升机也提供了支援，负责运送地面搜救人员，机上人员同时进行空中侦察。近期的搜寻重点集中在布莱克湖、鲍威尔湖、石人山口、酋长峰、麦克亨利峰、爱丽丝山及周边山脊区域。不过目前为止，搜救工作尚未发现新线索。调查仍在进行中，国家公园管理局搜救队成员也在继续查看航拍照片和无人机影像资料。

Pallansch, 49, of Fort Collins, Colorado was reported overdue on September 28, and park rangers confirmed his vehicle was still parked at the North Inlet Trailhead on the west side of Rocky Mountain National Park. Pallansch was last heard from around noon on Wednesday, September 27 when a text that was received at that time indicated he was almost to the summit of Mount Alice and roughly 7 miles from the Bear Lake area.

49岁的帕兰施来自科罗拉多州柯林斯堡，9月28日被报失联。公园护林员确认，他的车仍停在落基山国家公园西侧的北入口步道起点。最后一次有帕兰施的消息是在9月27日周三中午左右，当时收到的一条短信显示，他即将抵达爱丽丝山顶，距离熊湖区域大约7英里。

Pallansch started from the East Inlet Trailhead near Grand Lake on Wednesday, September 27. His reported itinerary was an expansive 28-mile route which included crossing the Continental Divide and traveling on established trails as well as off trail travel through steep talus slopes.
