That's a long time. It always amazes me how many people are found by hunters.

Yup. Lots of murdered folks get discovered by hunters. I guess you can drag a body just so far. Just sayin.

I know that country. It is to the east of the Pahsimeroi. Not overly far from my cabin as the crow flies and it is mountain goat country.

This is not the exact spot, but these are mountains in the area and representative of what type of terrain he was likely in.

I have hunted that area, not easy country. I can only imagine how cool it must have been to be a bow hunter capable of taking a goat in that country in 1968! Hard core those old boys were.

Well I’ll be. Glad the mystery is solved and the family can have some sort of relief. That is a long time to wonder.

Stories like this always fascinate me.

I guess they were issuing plastic id cards in 1968?
Or did he have a credit card? I would be surprised if one of those laminated paper drivers licenses held up that long...heck the leather of his wallet musta been in pretty sorry shape...
