ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) \u2014 More than two weeks after a Dallas professor vanished during a hike in the north Georgia mountains, his law firm is seeking experts to help find him. <\/p>\n
Charles Hosch, 67, set out on the Byron Herbert Reece Trail, a 4-mile out-and-back hike up Blood Mountain, on Nov. 11. He hasn\u2019t been seen since. <\/p>\n
PREVIOUS COVERAGE: \u2018Formal search operations\u2019 suspended for Texas attorney missing in north Georgia mountains<\/a><\/p>\n Hosch is a beloved adjunct professor at Southern Methodist University\u2019s Dedman School of Law in Dallas, Texas.<\/p>\n Formal search efforts were suspended on Monday, according to his law firm, Hosch & Morris, PLLC. But that doesn\u2019t mean the look is over. <\/p>\n \u201cWe have been encouraged by volunteer search and rescue organizations reaching out to offer support, and we need more help,\u201d the law firm said on its newly created website, www.bringcharleshome.com.<\/a><\/p>\n Now, the firm is asking anyone who specializes in search and rescue, drones, K-9 teams or any other helpful field to email julia@bringcharleshome.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n “Your knowledge and resources are invaluable to our efforts,” the firm said. \u201cOur resolve remains unshaken.”<\/p>\n Originally from Gainesville, Georgia, Hosch was seeking out nostalgic views on the hike, his daughter Julia Hosch-Singh said. He spoke to a ham radio operator at the top of the mountain and was last seen descending the slope wearing khaki pants, a camel-color sweater and a dark green jacket.<\/p>\n So far, search efforts have included more than 95 personnel, multiple K-9 teams, helicopters and a drone team. Dogs picked up his scent last week, narrowing the search area, but he has still not been found. <\/p>\n \u201cMy dad has an Eagle Scout training from this mountain, so if anybody could figure out a way to use survival techniques, and shelters and places that he knew and that really creative, thoughtful mind, to hang in there on this mountain if something had happened, it would be my dad,\u201d Hosch-Singh said. <\/p>\n This is a developing story.
