As of December 14, 2006, Charlie Fowler and Christine Boskoff are 10 days overdue from their 2- month trip to China. Charlie was a Mountainfilm Board Member for almost a decade and is currently on the Advisory Board. He is also an original member of the Telluride Mountain Club and was a Founding Board Member of the Horizon Program. Christine is the owner of Seattle-based Mountain Madness and was a featured speaker at Mountainfilm 2001 and 2006. Charlie is scheduled to be a speaker for the 2007 Festival’s Eiger-inspired sub-theme due to his solo of the Direct Route of the Eiger North Face in 1992. Both have homes in Norwood.

 

Donations are urgently needed so the Fowler-Boskoff Search Fund can immediately commit funds to continue and expand the search effort. An initial fundraising target of $75,000.00 has been established. In order to maintain the momentum, Mountainfilm in Telluride has opened a new account under its non-profit umbrella to accept tax deductible donations for the Fowler-Boskoff search effort.

Scroll down on this link previously posted, toward the end of the timeline. Nothing real yet. Seems the word is starting to get out in China. "Field teams," including a CNN crew, are making some progress. But finding further info, and C&C, will take time. Blessings to all involved in the search.

Just thought I'd post a link update. Seems like theyve narrowed the search down to one mountain. Gotta take everything you read with a grain of salt of coarse. The bottom link (as posted above aready) is probly the best source for info at this point. Lets hope for the best.
