Four Went Camping. The Mountain Kept Them. | Rogue River Mysteries

A family of four went camping for Labor Day.
By nightfall, the stove was set, the milk was on the table, and no one was there.
Seven months later, the mountain gave them back.
On Labor Day weekend, 1974, Richard and Belinda Cowden packed their two children and their basset hound into a 1956 Ford pickup and drove into the Siskiyou Mountains, to a familiar campsite on Carberry Creek near the tiny settlement of Copper, Oregon, in the Applegate country that drains into the Rogue River. On the morning of September 1, Richard and his five-year-old son walked to the Copper General Store and bought a carton of milk. It was the last confirmed sighting of any member of the family.
That evening, the campsite looked as if the Cowdens had stepped away for a moment. A purse and truck keys lay on the picnic table. A wallet and wristwatch lay in the dirt. One of the largest searches in Oregon history followed, and it found nothing. Then, on April 12, 1975, two gold prospectors climbing a steep hillside roughly seven miles from the camp made a discovery that turned a disappearance into a homicide case that remains unsolved to this day.
In tonight's transmission, your host Sierra Sterling follows the Rogue River Mysteries from the river's headwaters to the abandoned campsite, through a seven-month search, a cave that was empty in September, and a paroled killer who refused a polygraph. Then we travel downriver to the river's other open file, a silver object seen from a fishing boat in 1949, and separate what the record shows from what the legend has made of it.
Keep the doors locked. Keep the volume low. Tonight's file, is open.
