    HOPE, B.C. — Search and rescue crews are looking for a man missing in the mountains north of Hope, B.C.
     
    Police say a logging truck is believed to have been washed off of a forest service road in Tuesday's storm.
     
    The wrecked vehicle was found more than 200 metres below the road in a ravine, but the truck's 61-year-old driver has not been found.
     
    Staff Sgt. Karol Rehdner with Hope RCMP says the truck was being loaded when it was swept from the road.
