RCMP are asking for the public's help in locating a southern Alberta couple who didn't return home after a day trip to Fernie, B.C. this weekend.
46 year-old Jacob and Anja Oosterwijk, 43, left Fort Macleod, AB into British Columbia around 11:30 Saturday morning, and were supposed to return by about 6 that evening.
The couple was traveling in a 1997 Dark Green Honda CRV with Alberta licence plate BCC7195.
Jacob is approximately 6'0" tall and of medium build. He wears glasses, is bald with a close shaved beard, and was wearing blue jeans with a brown leather jacket and dark brown baseball cap with an unknown logo on it.
Anja is approximately 5'7" tall and of medium build. She also wears glasses, has short dark brown hair, and was wearing either blue jeans or a blue jean skirt with a dark blue 3/4 length winter coat.
There is a possibility they may have taken some side roads off of Highway 3 in the Pincher Creek, Crowsnest Pass, Sparwood, and Fernie areas and become lost or stuck with recent snowfall in those areas.
While their disappearance is not considered to be suspicious at this time, RCMP are trying to check on their safety.
Anyone who may have seen the couple or know of their whereabouts are asked to contact the Fort Macleod RCMP at 403-553-7200 or to call 911 with any information.
