tvscum 43 Posted February 27, 2015 White guy, age 28, mustache and goatee. He was hiking alone. I have no connection but know some of us ride along that route. Keep in mind he would have been hiking that area almost two weeks ago. Search continues up there today. They are trying to beat the incoming rain storm. http://apps.sdsheriff.net/press/Default.aspx?FileLink=3d3cfe6d-7dff-4cac-9119-31e4a4a003bb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagstr 288 Posted February 27, 2015 After reading the Sheriff report; He made the trip to the highway near Warners and met with some foul play. Either a big cat or a Bad cat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Afry 1 Posted February 27, 2015 Took him four days to hike from Anza to Warner Springs on PCT? I'm no hiker but that's a days hike maaaaybe two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Honda90 0 Posted February 27, 2015 He left his gear (which appeared brand new) on the trail?? Maybe to climb a peak for cell service? Hmmm. Guess he could have fallen or been attacked by a cat or snake. Seems bad guys would have taken his gear. My buddy was just telling me how awesome the BP trackers are. If they can't find him, he's probably not there. Plus they should have a record of his phone activity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robertaccio 412 Posted February 27, 2015 solo...= mistake...solo with no spot big mistake..solo with no satcom nogo....solo in wilderness without packing heat mistake....over confidence big mistake. hope the guy shows up somewhere. Always think why would someone jettison all their gear.... if in dire straights leave a crumb trail at least (some items) or the old Boy scout stick arrow trick.. does not sound good after all this time for this guy. PS reminds mewhatever happened with that other case of the guy leaving his truck in Anza Borrego never to be seen again???anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaugh 1 Posted February 27, 2015 Doug's step son Mickey never was found. Strange indeed. Mickey wasn't the sharpest tool but he was a tough kid. Saw this other guy on the news last night. No signs of him? Seems strange. +1 on packing heat going solo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted February 28, 2015 +1 on packing heat going solo. Unless you're Vic. In which case you just bring Vic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
