BETHEL -- The search has been suspended for the third person missing since December when a snowstorm hit the Kwethluk area.
KYUK reports the all-volunteer search for 27-year-old Sally Stone was suspended because of cold weather, equipment in need of repair and low morale.
Stone and two others from Aniak were traveling on a snowmobile Dec. 12 on the Kuskokwim River.
The body of one of the other riders, 51-year-old Ralph "Jimmy" Demantle, was found in mid-December near open water where the four-wheeler was recovered soon after the group went missing. The body of 26-year-old George Evan was found about 46 feet underwater by a remote-operated vehicle.
Officials with the volunteer Bethel Search and Rescue organization says at some point, the search for Stone will start up again.
