(CNN) British actor Julian Sands, known for his work on shows like “24” and movies like “A Room with a View” and “Arachnophobia,” has been identified as a hiker missing since last Friday in the Mt. Baldy, California, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.

Sands was reported missing at 7:30 pm on January 13, Gloria Huerta, a spokeswoman for the department, told CNN.

CNN has reached out to representatives for Sands for comment.

Mt. Baldy is located in the San Gabriel Mountains in San Bernardino County.

Search and rescue teams were on the mountain looking for Sands, but due to severe weather and the threat of an avalanche, rescuers had to suspend their search efforts, Huerta said.

Officials continue to use drones to search for Sands, but other resources are limited due to the weather at Mt. Baldy, Huerta added.

The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department recently warned hikers not to visit Mt. Baldy, where high winds and ice continue to make conditions dangerous.

In a Facebook post, the agency said that over the past four weeks, search and rescue teams have responded to 14 relief missions in and around Mt. Baldy.

“These rescue missions have been for lost, stranded and/or injured hikers. Unfortunately, over the past 4 weeks, two hikers did not survive after falling and injuring themselves,” the post reads. “Recent storms that brought snow and ice conditions are not favorable for hikers, even those who feel they have a high level of experience.”

Sands’ other credits include movies like “The Killing Fields” and “Leaving Las Vegas” and TV shows like “Smallville.”

One of his most recent credits includes a recurring role on the Netflix television series “What/If.”
