EISPIRATEN

I was just writing a note here for anyone not in our WhatsApp group. Colin was found yesterday and his remains are being recovered this morning. We will know more soon, and I will share here as we learn more. Thanks to you all for your kind thoughts and rememberences and also for helping to brainsto...

@Paul Ayers Colin had the 1938 aerial in his “east fork Santa Anita” trail project folder on his PC, and that image was open on his desktop. He was definitely intending to go find those switchbacks the evening before he went out, but of course we don’t know where he actually went in the morning. Ge...

The search teams did not find Colin yesterday, nor any sign or clue that could not be accounted for. Today the operation will transition to „limited continuous“ status, which means that they will no longer be pulling resources or man power from outside the area. The local SAR team will be reviewing ...

Thank you Sean.

Search and rescue is asking:

Any idea if Colin carried anything (camera, binoculars) with a strap of the brand "Senix"?

I have started a WhatsApp group and compiling list of parking spots that have been checked so we don’t duplicate efforts. There are a few people out looking and we want to be efficient. If anyone here would like to be added please DM me your phone number. Thank you.

Not the one, but thank you. No roof box or rear racks, maybe a single roof bike rack. I’m working on getting a photo and a license number.

Hi @dima I think we climbed together at stronghold once. Yeah, I saw his posts on this thread which was actually Friday night even though it said “2 days ago”. Can you click on that time stamp and tell me if it was actually Saturday instead of Friday? That would be helpful to clarify. If anyone else...

Wonderful. Thank you @Sean . We are about 4 hours from LA, but en route. I’ll post any updates here. Police report has been filed and we’ll be asking if they can ping his phone.

Colin’s car is a silver 2003 Subaru Outback. I don’t have license plate number handy but I’ll post here when I get it.

@Sean @Uncle Rico @Nate U @Girl Hiker @Sean @dima This is Ian Walker, Colin's brother. We are very concerned because we have not heard from Colin since Friday night and he has no-showed at work over the weekend and this morning. His wife and son are in Spain. I am outside of LA, but driving there i...

Walked motorway to edge of Eaton Cyn and up the firebreak to West Fuji this morning. LOTS OF TICKS on the firebreak, beware. There's no way to get up it without thrashing through the brush. Otherwise, beautiful.
