Re: Hiker missing Bells/Pyramid (elks/aspen)
Many thanks to all for reviewing photos and sending information to help. We've collected everything and sent it to the sheriff and SAR this morning for their review. We appreciate your time and efforts.

Re: Hiker missing Bells/Pyramid (elks/aspen)
Update 10/10: Search and Rescue reviewed the photo that Steve Cook surfaced. (and all other top leads) This area is known as the Garbage Chute and is very common to have skid marks as everything falls down that path. The entire area was very closely searched both on foot and via air by SAR. Also, we had a photo expert review this image and the report was aligned with SAR belief, strange rock formation.
Informal searches are still occurring on a daily basis. The Sheriff's office is more than willing to continue to research anomalies that we find in photos. Our goal is to gather all photos and information from all of you and summarize and send the top leads to SAR for follow up. We want to be respectful of helping and do not want to overwhelm the Sheriff's department.
We have additional photos arriving tonight and will post as soon as possible and ask for your help and thank you all in advance for your time! Please research the photos until Wednesday night as we will put the summary together for SAR first thing Thursday morning.
Thank you all again!
