    The first clue is the bucket of rocks seven miles from Trevor’s truck. A normal rock search pattern in those conditions would have taken him a much shorter distance from his vehicle. The seven mile distance shows Trevor’s mental state was compromised at that point, probably due to heat stress and lack of water. The dogs losing his scent in an arid land is strange, but dogs don’t like extremely hot weather. I lived in Phoenix, AZ. for seven years. Hunted and fished many areas in summer heat. People died in the Arizona Desert because they got a flat tire and took little water. The only time I hiked seven miles from my vehicle was a hike into the Grand Canyon. Many people disappear in Joshua Tree National Park. Some are found later nearly mummified by the desert. Do not go rock hunting in August in 110 degree heat.

    That was early monsoon season. I wonder if that area has issues with flash floods. Otherwise, having lived in Vegas for almost a decade, it’s an abysmal place to die alone. Never enter the desert alone without a GPS device, sat phone, a gun or two and at least one friend.

      Well I just can’t understand from watching all these disappearances is why don’t these people have a personal locator beacon. You can get them on Amazon or at REI for 250 bucks. If you get an ACR there’s no monthly fee and it works anywhere in the world. You might have to wait several hours but you push that thing an activated in the cavalry will come. I have one and I don’t even go places like this. I’ve seen so many people die just from the car breaking down a freeze to death they get snowed in they get lost And all they would need to do is push a button. I just don’t get it.

    As someone who spent 40 years in the desert, mostly hunting quail & chucker, it's very unusual for someone to travel 7 miles away from there vehicle in those types of temperatures? Considering you can always find dirt roads all over the desert or just travel off road being that the desert floor is usually compact enough to travel on!! He was experienced to know the terrain being that his hobby took him out there often? Very odd case indeed rusty! I always had my vehicle in site while out there especially in those temps, nowadays nobody should go into remote area's without a personal location beacon & survival gear of somtype, & definitely a visable firearm may save your life!!!
    Bless that man & his family, hopefully they find out what happened to him.

    I used to go to the same ward as Trevor, and I was good friends with his kids. Trevor didn't have depression, he was very happy-go-lucky. Unfortunately, my family moved to Utah, and we were living here at the time of his disapperance. From what I hear, he was looking for rocks for a youth activity for a young men's group. He didn't expect to be long. So he brought only a small waterbottle with him, so it is highly likely and believed that he ran out of water and became delerious soon after and while in this state wondered off without his bucket. I don't recall perfectly, but I think I remember hearing that he left his phone in his truck, but even if he did bring it with him, he wouldn't have had service nor thought he would have needed call it's believed he didn't get lost until after he got dehydrated and unable to think straight.

      Okay. So you think these people commit suicide lol? Who the fuck brings a bucket to go collect rocks before they kill themselves? If most of these missing 411 people are suicidal, where the fuck are the bodies? Your dead body would start producing smells in the heat of a a desert... Why didn't the dogs pick up a scent? Why aren't these bodies being found? It goes deeper than you think.

      @@blackjack2770 Hmm...I don't necessarily think "these people" kill themselves, although I'm sure some of them do, but to answer your question, someone who tells people they are going out in the desert to collect rocks is who would take a bucket to collect rocks out in the desert to kill themselves(??). It's not always as cut & dry as...you apparently think it is. People don't necessarily have the attitude of, "I'm going to kill myself so why tf do I care about bringing a bucket to collect rocks?" It's not always like that. Sometimes the urge or courage can come over people suddenly. & as for the bodies--wild animals eat them--we know this happens. The lack of corpses means...nothing.

If it were animal predation there would be a scene... And tracker dogs are skilled at finding that scene. His body should have been found not far from where the bucket was. I don't care if it were suicide or animal predation or if he fell somewhere. Something sinister abducted him into an alternate dimension or portal.

    As a rockhound familiar with the canyons and mountains of eastern Nevada, I can say with honesty that there is some odd shit that still goes on in the hard to reach places of this land. Predator animals and nefarious humans aside; when I'm out fossicking I keep all my senses alert, because I've seen shit out there that doesn't make any logical sense. I mean, one can never really know the intentions of a small spherical cloud moving along an arroyo bottom. Stepping out of the way seems to be the best course of action, as I'm still here.

    Even experienced hikers, etc. can quickly become unaware or end up poorly prepared. My family and I are experienced hikers in Colorado and have lived in Colorado for our entire lives. Climbed seven of the fourteeners several times. One afternoon, on the spur of the moment, we decided to take a quick hike and when very bad weather moved in, we realized we didn't have a single drop of water, shelter of any type, or even a sweater between us. Fortunately we all made it back to the car safely but we learned an important lesson that day. You can never be overprepared for the elements.

    • @WhitneyDahlin
      @WhitneyDahlin Před rokem +1

      What's weird is the fact if he had stayed by his bucket he would have been found! What I suspect happened is he wandered a little too far from the car and then got lost and headed in the wrong direction when he thought he was going back to the car. And he finally just set the bucket down because it was so heavy and he was probably really hot and dehydrated and kept looking for the car in the wrong direction. The average person walks 3 mph. And it usually takes between 6 and 8 hours before anyone's even looking for you that's 24 miles away from where you started by the time the search party starts looking at the first two miles. That's why the second you realize you're lost you should just stay put.

      A scent can be destroyed by something as simple as wind or rain.
      Dogs aren’t always able to follow a scent. I’ve done this stuff in the past. Most of the time, the dogs lost the trail. We ended up finding the people by other means. Usually spotting them from the air.

    If he were sick or had some sort of heart issue, he could have abandoned all his gear and just started walking in a panic. In a hurry, and in danger knowing the feeling of a heart issue, it could have led him in the wrong direction until he finally collapsed in a place off the beaten path.
    For the dogs to not find this path isn’t too irregular. It happens quite a bit, especially over long distances and over varying types of terrain.
    Even in wide open spaces, flat and desolate, there are places that can hide the remains. Making it seam as if it were “right under their noses!”

    I was there and know a few that were on the search and rescue. A friend of mine is a local fire chief and helped organize and run the search. It was a huge effort and what some don't understand that this isn't an open desert. Where he went missing is thick with 10+' pines that you can't see 20'' in any direction most of the time. This terrain goes on for many miles with very few high peaks where Trevor could've gotten enough elevation to see very far or to use as orientation when walking. It's very easy to get turned around and once dehydration sets in along with disorientation, it's a bad area to be in.
    Cell service in this area is non existent so even if he did have a cell phone, it was of little use.
    Even though it's called a wash where he went missing, there is no water. There is only a few solar powered wells for the cows that are kept in the area as the only water supply and it hadn't rained in weeks before or after so there was no water available anywhere else except these wells.

    Sadly, a phone that far out in the desert is typically pointless, unless it's a SAT phone. Most of us who hike in the desert don't go that far from our vehicles, especially in August. It takes very little to dehydrate out there. Also, snakes, sink holes, abandoned mine shafts, and flash floods are extremely dangerous, not to mention how far down the temp drops at night. Saddened for his family.

      I really hope it’s not humans who are causing these disappearances. Humans being that sick and evil would really ruin my faith in the future. But it is the most logical answer. It couldn’t be animals because evidence of the kill would be found even if they were mostly eaten. Paranormal? Idk but the whole phenomenon and blatant unwillingness to help by sharing info by national parks is crazy.

      Same...my beautiful tuxedo, Jimmie, who never left the front porch if he ever got out of the house, just disappeared 3 1/2 months ago. I combed every inch in a half mile radius looking for him, knowing I would probably just find a pile of black and white fur and some coyote scat, but I didn't even find that. But what is weird, is that I heard the bell on his collar faintly for weeks after. Yes, I looked under my house, all around the yard, in every room of my little house. I called and called, no answer. It was like he was sucked into another dimension. I have the bizarre feeling that he is still alive somewhere--but where?

    I’m from the area, Caliente. Lincoln county is home to hundreds of high desert trails that span over many miles of public land. The terrain is also full of geological and biological hazards such as venomous snakes and insects, abandoned mine shafts, mountain lions and feral hogs. ( which have been known to eat almost anything in sight, they haven’t shied away from eating human corpses as well, bones included.)
    I didn’t know Trevor personally, but he was a substitute teacher of mine before he went missing. He was a really good guy, my prayers go out to him and his family.
