Search-and-rescue teams from as far away as Vancouver Island have been helping comb the area where McKean disappeared all week, and have been moving into increasingly remote hiking and mountain bike trails.

The search is expected to expand to as many as 125 personnel on Saturday if McKean is not located Friday.

McKean, who lives with dementia, is described as five-feet-six-inches tall and 130 pounds with a slim build. He was last seen wearing a green jacket, a baseball hat, blue jeans and a blue Vancouver Canucks hoodie.
