Investigators released a new photo of Provencher and a few more details as they appeal for help in finding the two friends.

Mounties said preliminary information indicates that Provencher and Scurr made it to their destination in Spences Bridge; however, they haven’t been seen or heard from since.

On Sunday, authorities located the unoccupied Jeep in a wooded area near Logan Lake. Police say there was no indication of foul play and the Jeep has been transported to Kamloops for further investigation.

Scurr is a 37-year-old Caucasian man. He is 6-foot-4, weighs 220 pounds and has brown hair and brown eyes.

Provencher is a 38-year-old Caucasian man. He is 5-foot-10, weighs 180 pounds and has brown hair and blue eyes.

Police say it’s out of character for the men to be out of touch for this length of time.

After the recovery of the Jeep, a search and rescue team, Integrated Police Dog Services and the RCMP Air 4 helicopter were dispatched to conduct a search of the wooded area. After the search, investigators say they don’t believe the two men are in that area.

Investigators are asking anyone with information on the whereabouts of the men to contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-8477 or solvecrime.ca.
