Thats too bad.
When I lived in CA I once lost a plane over a dry riverbed that was filled with 8 foot tall brush. I had to go rent a real plane and fly over to find it. If you have that option and you think it is in mostly one piece that would be better then waiting till fall.
Are we talking about the Basin? If so I lost one theer the same way,, PCM lock out and away she flew never to be seen again, by me at least [:@]
