I lost my Spark also, similar issue. You are a master finding a needle in a snowbank! Congrats! One hint for others, the location only gets recorded every 5? seconds. In my case, it had flown straight for 4 more seconds in sport mode. So it was about 175 ft from the gps location that I was searching - in a field with tall hay. My neighbor saw it in my field after it had been mowed. I had searched a 125' radius circle then along the path if it had started to RTH and hit a tree.

So you did end up finding it ?
What shape was it in?
Does it still fly/work?
I noticed a lot of videos on YouTube of same-thing happening to them.
I never thought of it to much until “IT” happened.
There is a quick silicone o ring fix very cheap.

My neighbor found it about 6 months later after it had 40" of snow, -20° weather and having a tractor mow and bale the hay over it.
No battery, camera or props plus lots of scrapes
This is at my "camp" and my neighbor just found it. I will be up to get it over Easter, but I doubt it. I have a Mavic Pro, no issues with it.
