Search in Utah for Henderson woman, 18, scaled back

NORTH LOGAN, Utah — Authorities have again scaled back their search for an 18-year-old Henderson woman who went hiking in northern Utah's Green Canyon.

Cache County sheriff's Lt. Matt Bilodeau said Monday authorities believe Andrea Celina Roye simply went hiking and is not in any danger.

Bilodeau says he's hoping for confirmation from other hikers and campers that they have seen the woman.

The sheriff's office had stopped searching for Roye on Friday but resumed the search Saturday because wet, chilly weather made being outside overnight more dangerous. But Bilodeau says overnight temperatures are expected to climb to the 50s.

Roye's boyfriend reported her missing on Thursday after she didn't return from the canyon at the expected time.
