MENDOCINO Co., 12/9/23 — The Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) is conducting an ongoing search and rescue operation for Scott William Graves, a 63 year old man from Piercy who was last in contact with family members on December 4, while he was at his property on the 73000 block of Island Mountain Road. The MCSO search and rescue operation has been ongoing daily in the vicinity since Dec, 7, and plans are currently underway to continue the search on Sunday, Dec. 10 and Monday Dec. 11 if needed, according to an announcement this evening by the agency.
Graves is described as 5 feet 11 inches and 180 lbs. He reportedly told family members that he had trouble leaving the property on Dec. 4 due to road conditions from winter weather, but had planned to try again to leave on Dec. 5. When he had not been heard from by Dec, 7, family members traveled to the property and could not find Graves, although his vehicle and most of his personal belongings remained there, according to MCSO. The Sheriff’s Office has been searching the area since Thursday morning, and plan to bring in additional resources for the upcoming search.
