SWEET HOME, Ore. -- The search is on for a 26-year-old Eugene man who was camping in the Cascadia State Park, east of Sweet Home, and failed to make it back to the campsite.

Linn County Sheriff Tim Mueller reports members of the Search and Rescue team and Linn County mounted posse are conducting the search.

The missing man's father called police when his son, 26-year-old Anthony Laveck, did not get back to the camp Wednesday.

Thomas Laveck called police after he had a short cellphone conversation with his son, who indicated he was unsure where he was but believed he could get to the camp site. He never showed.

And Anthony Laveck had no further contact with his father.

The search began Wednesday night and resumed Thursday and there is still no sign of him.
