Julian Sands' wife, Eugenia Citkowitz, reported the actor missing on Jan. 13 after he embarked on a hike on the dangerous Mount Baldy in California
The search for missing actor Julian Sands is ongoing exactly four weeks from his disappearance after he hiked up Southern California's Mount Baldy.
San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department public information officer Gloria Huerta tells PEOPLE on Friday, "Regarding the search for Julian Sands, we remain hopeful but know the outcome may not be what we would like."
She adds, "Conditions on Mt. Baldy remain a danger and our Aviation Division still patrols the area when they are available. We also plan to search the area by ground in the future.
"We are in contact with the family, and although they are grateful for the support they have received, they have no further statement for the public at this time."
Sands was first reported missing in the Baldy Bowl area on Jan. 13, by his wife, Eugenia Citkowitz.
Crews continued their search for the Leaving Las Vegas star over that weekend using helicopters, drones and infrared devices, but were unable to locate the missing actor, the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said at the time.
Officials had also previously attempted to retrace Sands' steps and ping his cell phone in hopes of locating the English actor.
In a Twitter post shared on Jan. 23, the sheriff's department confirmed that the search for the missing Sands was continuing, adding that the department would "continue to utilize the resources" it has at its disposal.
Along with the department's update, it shared a statement from the family of Sands, who extended their gratitude to the "heroic search teams" who continued to aid in the search for the missing actor.

I don’t know anything about this guy but I hope he comes home safely and in good health.
Sad story, but remaining hopeful at this point is just delaying dealing with death.
I hope he is on a beach in Brazil right now, and stuck California with a huge bill for back taxes. :)
I hope he is found. Taking a hike up mount Baldy in the middle of winter? To put it lightly, not a sane thing to do....
I’m going with; a mountain lion got him.
And not to do alone. Praying for him.
Doofus went hiking alone
He still looks good here……..he was in Arachnophobia…..Room With a View……etc
Something probably got him or maybe scavenged him.
What does he have on the Clintons?
The first movie I remember seeing him in was “Warlock” in 1989. The sequel “Warlock: The Armageddon” was released in 1993. He also appeared in episodes of various TV shows. I enjoyed his acting, and learned of his disappearance at least two weeks ago.
They’ll be lucky if they find his bones next spring
Somebody should say it
He slipped like one of the hikers did that slid 700 feet to their death. In his case no one was around to see. He will never be found.
That's just ignorance. Hiking alone is great for your mental health. I do it often. Literally have hiked 100s of miles on the AT, Florida Trail, Benton-McKay, Foothills Trail, Finger Lakes Trail, Superior Trail... Many nights in my hammock. It doesn't have to be unsafe.
Hiking alone on my baldy is stupid
