Officers from South Coast Police District were notified and began inquiries into his whereabouts.
An extensive search was conducted over three days with 45 volunteers from NSW SES Bermagui Unit, NSW SES Eden Unit and NSW SES Bega Units assisting in the search.
However, the search was suspended as police considered their next moves and made further inquiries.
Police and family hold concerns for Mr Claux's welfare due to his age.

Following inquiries, police have received information that a vehicle described as a blue van, or a Winnebago type camper van with a blue and silver stripe was parked next Peter's vehicle around the time he went missing.
Anyone with information about Peter's whereabouts - including anyone who saw Peter's vehicle or van prior to 11.30am Wednesday, June 1 - is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
