I want to bring up a UID that on an outside chance, might be Roger. He has been brought up here in the past as a possible match for Roger. There are some facial features that don't appear to match Roger's, and yet there are other parts that seem quite reminiscent of Roger's photos. This UID has a reconstruction. I've seen enough of them to know some are really good ones that closely match the missing person while others are only a very poor rendition. It depends on how good the artist is that's doing the reconstruction. So with that said, has Roger been compared to DoeNetwork.org case # 614UMCO found just west of Glenwood Springs in 2003?
What I'm seeing as a match, IMO, is length of face from the eye down, and the space between the UID's left eye and nose. Nose and lips are only the artist's best guess so these should not be part of a rule out. The age on the UID is listed as 35+, more than 20 years above Roger's age, but since so few bones were found with the skull, I'm thinking even the age could be off. Men have a strong ridge above the bridge of the nose which is usually hidden by flesh. Now this artist has given this UID something of a Neanderthal look so I'm not sure if in life this UID would've had such a visible ridge or if it would've been fleshed over so to speak.
Has this UID been ruled out as Roger?

Case History
The victim was located in a steep ravine on Red Mountain, just west of the city limits of Glenwood Springs, Colorado, on August 9, 2003. The remains were found in a steep, narrow gully that leads investigators to believe the skeleton was washed down over time by spring runoff.
A skull and between 15 to 20 bones were located. The jaw, with some teeth, was still attached to the skull when it was discovered, but there was no hair or tissue.
