The “Gathering in Hope” family in Nor promoted the Service Church with poor expectations to bypass Trekker missing in northern Manitoba

Their loved ones met with Stephen Skiotelfic, a missing Norwegian vehicle in northern Manitoba for more than a week, in his mother country on Friday for hope for the best, while preparing for the worst, as expectations are exacerbated to find 29 -year -old in remote coastal life.

Christian Derissin said that about 100 relatives, friends and members of society have attended a service at the Holmespo Kirk Church, outside Oslo, on Friday night for “gathering in hope” for Scottlefic.

“The fact that the police have now confirmed that his bag (backpack) was in water for some time giving the family, unfortunately, realizing that there is little hope,” Derissin, a Skiotelic family spokesman, told CBC News.

“But … they cling to hope and do what they can to ensure that the research is continuing,” he said from outside the church. “All it takes, they focus on finding Stephen.”

Skjottelvik, who described RCMP as an experienced Boy traveler, began his journey from Fort Severn, Onton, about 1500 km northwest of Toronto by air, on July 25, and was expected to arrive in York Landing, Man.

Skjottelvik set out to travel from James Bay to Alaska on a documented on Facebook Call Stephen’s great Canadian journey. His uncle said, Lars Georgin Sorensen, Scotlevik It was prepared for years for this trip.

On Thursday, RCMP informed the family who found the Skjottelvik backpack and a gun near the Hayes River, which flows through a landscape, Mandi, Muskeg. RCMP said that the river is one of the fastest river in Canada, and that water levels can significantly turn four meters between low tides.

Derissin said that RCMP issued a statement to the Norwegian press that the backpack was in the water “perhaps for a long time.”

This result, associated with GPS coordinates, which was obtained a few days ago.

Derissen said that the family was informed of the researchers on the ground in the York Factor region, especially the volunteers from Fort Severn Version Nation in North Ontario, Jelam and other Manitoba societies, who returned to it again early Friday morning.

Derissin said: “Most of the local population and volunteers who are searching in cooperation with … the police, said Derissin.

He said, “(The family) understands realistic fact that the backpack has been found near the water and may have been in water for some time, and that it may be hoped now that Stephen is alive,” he said. “But it is still hope.”

Various campaigns to raise funds continue from the search voltage in Norway and Manitoba.

Dyresen said that Skjottelvik Drew Drew is from two Norwegian wildlife experts who have trusted their flights across Alaska, Canada and abroad.

Skjottelvik spent a time in Fort Severn First Nation before heading on his journey, dedicated to the York Factory, 300 km away. Before leaving, he appointed a person from Fort Severn as an emergency call that was among those who were on the ground to lead him.

The terrain between the northern societies is dominated by the soup swamps that are witnessing a challenge, and also falls within the home of the polar bear and wolf.

Skjottelvik was planning to reach the York Factory a week ago today.

He logged in the day before the seal, indicating that he was separated from one of his dogs in a wolf attack, as RCMP previously said. Someone from Fort Severn posted pictures on Facebook about a slim look like Skjottelvik, saying that she wandered in society on Monday.

RCMP sent one officer to the area on Monday to search for signs of Skjotlvik using a thermal photography plane to complete the search efforts, largely by the north, as well as officials to maintain Manitoba.

Manitoba RCMP sergeant. Paul Managri said on Wednesday that the Federal Police Agency hoped to send more resources in the north.

CBC News requested an update from the head of the Fort Severn first team Matthew Kexpian and Manitoba RCMP on Friday, but he did not hear immediately.
