The Contra Costa County sheriff's search and rescue team searched for the body of 31-year-old Nina Reiser in a hilly area near Oakland on Saturday but wasn't able to find her, sheriff's spokesman Jimmy Lee said today.

Lee said about 50 members of the volunteer search and rescue team, under the supervision of sheriff's deputies, combed Pinehurst Road in the area of the small town of Canyon, which is in unincorporated Contra Costa County just below Oakland and the Alameda County line in the East Bay hills.

Lee said the search was "pretty challenging" because the area is lush and there's a lot of vegetation and trees.
