Five days after Julian Sands was reported missing, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that he was last seen in the Mount Baldy area of California, where he had gone out for a hike. “His wife did report him missing,” public information officer for the sheriff’s department, Gloria Huerta, told ABC7. “From what I understand, he left sometime that day for a hike and when he did not return, his family reported him missing.” Efforts have reportedly been underway to find Sands (whose car was found near the search area), though the outlet confirmed that authorities have had to deal with difficult terrain and weather. BBC News reported that while those on the ground had to stop their search because of the risk of being injured by an avalanche, the authorities have continued their search via air, using at least one drone and a helicopter.
Sands’ friends, family, and fans have all been taking to social media since the news of his disappearance was made public, with many sharing hopeful messages. “Please, please let Julian Sands be okay. A friend and an inspiration. Awful news,” tweeted Samuel West, while Cassian Elwes wrote, “I’ve known since Friday that my friend Julian Sands has been missing on mt baldy. I’m devastated. A very close family friend who was an adventurer in everything he did. I’ve said many prayers.”
