He Walked Down a Mountain He Couldn't Possibly Have Walked Down

A composition notebook, sealed in plastic and written in freezing temperatures, was found wedged beneath a trailhead kiosk miles from where a missing hiker with a fractured leg was last known to be - the final entry stops mid-sentence. How did Randy Sawyer, injured above 7,000 feet and immobile in subfreezing nights, get that notebook to the trailhead?

In this episode, we present the sequence of events, search operations, and the puzzling physical evidence gathered between April 9 and April 16, 2019, to explore the unresolved movement that baffled search-and-rescue teams. Can the field notes, boot prints, and a single fire ring explain who - or what - moved the notebook down the mountain?

Person: Randy Sawyer
Date: April 9-16, 2019
Location: Harrow Creek trailhead and Pelton Shelf, above 7,000 feet
Status: Missing; fractured left fibula and bivy shelter found on Pelton Shelf
Coordinator: Amanda Mueller

- The notebook was found at 6:15 AM on April 14, 2019, wedged beneath the log retaining wall at the Harrow Creek trailhead.
- Temperature had dropped to 28°F three nights prior to the notebook's discovery; pages were still legible inside a clear plastic bag.
- Randy Sawyer left his truck at Harrow Creek trailhead on April 7 with keys in the wheel well and a written itinerary under the windshield wiper.
- A signal fire with fresh ash and a single size 11 boot print was found on the northeast boulder field edge of Pelton Shelf by volunteer Frank Odum.
- Bloodhound Hector tracked scent 2.1 miles along the main Harrow Creek trail and stopped at a granite slab and rocky ford where the scent abruptly ended.
