The U.S. Coast Guard suspended its search for five individuals who made a mayday call from a fishing boat, Wind Walker, in treacherous conditions.
Despite extensive search efforts covering over 100 square nautical miles by the Coast Guard, the missing vessel and crew have not been found.
Chief Warrant Officer James Koon expressed sorrow for not being able to locate those missing, highlighting the challenges faced during the search.
Severe weather conditions, including heavy snow and winds up to 60 mph, complicated the search and rescue operations in Alaska's icy waters.
