Search teams continue to look in Zion National Park for a woman who has been missing since Tuesday.
Rangers at Zion and the Washington County Sheriff’s Office are continuing their investigation of the missing-person case of Holly Suzanne Courtier. She is described as 38 years old, 5-foot-3, about 100 pounds. She is white, with brown hair and blue eyes.
Courtier was dropped off Tuesday by a private shuttle bus at the Grotto park area in Zion. She was scheduled to be picked up by shuttle bus at the Grotto stop at 4:40 p.m., but never returned. Her intended travel plan and current whereabouts are not known.
Rangers believe she was wearing a Pistil gray trucker hat, a black Patagonia puff jacket, a dark tank top, gray Danner Trail hiking boots, and a blue Osprey multiday pack. She may have been carrying a cream-colored, open-front Kühl hoodie, a Rumple Nanoloft puffy blanket and a camouflage double-sized hammock.
