ELLENSBURG, Wash. - Sheriff's deputies are looking for a Tukwila man who has been missing since Monday in the mountains between Ellensburg and Naches.

The Kittitas County sheriff's office says 62-year-old Dwight Bates had been elk hunting in the Manastash area and was attempting to drive to Highway 410. He called his son to say road conditions were bad.

Search officials and volunteers are working out of the Manastash Snow Park.

Bates' vehicle is a 1967 Ford pick-up, green/white with a matching canopy, bearing Washington License B39032C.
