of the Squiamish RCMP
detachment.:

For 29-year-old Rebecca
Prette, washed: away in the

October 28 “M” creek slide, -

the. search resumed this
weekend. _

The hunt, called off in late
November because of
equipment failure and
mounting costs, was ex-
pected to get underway
sometime Friday with the
help of a specialized search
team ‘based in Houston,
Texas.

The team uses com-
puterized diving equipment
able to go to a depth of 330
metres, |

‘Zaharia says it is one of
about two such units in
North America.

The search, costing
$12,000 a day, will be un-

dertaken for only two days,
according to Zaharia.

That. will ‘bring the total
cost of the search to about
$224,000, he estimated.

Prette’s family was asked
earlier whether they wanted
the search resumed, he said,
‘and they indicated that they
did.

It was the sudden snow-

--melt at high levels caused by

rising temperatures that
caused the flooding of “the
two.creeks, Zaharia said.
The ceiling, currently ..at
2500 feet, would have to rise
to 5000 ft. before the snow
would start melting again.

All the flood victims found
so far have -been located in

slide paths. Nine people
died in the “M” creek
episode.
