I made a rudimentary map with the main points on it just to help zoom in on some of the points of interest. This is obviously an approximation based on Andrew's maps.
Kevin Rudnicki
From what I understand, Kevin's path to the last seen point #2 is based on his habits, trail maps and the time between when he left home round 8am and was seen at 8:45am (which answers my previous question on whether he could have started out on Mt. Herman Road and walked W/NW instead being no, not in 45 minutes)
I am compiling a summary of facts based on what we have but would like some things clarified if possible:
1. It was said early in the thread his phone last pinged at home. Did LE ever disclose if they could determine when it was turned off/lost connection?
2. How did Kevin get to Palmer Lake and how was he intending to return to Laramie?
3. When did Kevin and his ex break up? (I believe some of your posts were removed that covered this
@PalmerLakeAnon as I remember things being said and can't find the quotes now)
4. Is dad involved in the case or searching at all? Where is he located?
5. Does Kevin have a CO driver's license?
6. Passport? Have LE confirmed he did not leave the country?
7. Were his FB or email records ever accessed?
8. In #240 Megan says Kevin didn't tell her he was coming home - wasn't he expected at the dinner?
9. Were cadaver dogs used at any point or just air scent?
10. How deep is the water in the creek now and has it changed much since Sept? Maybe
@otto can help here.
11. Were Kevin's drawings of the Secret Underground Drug Palace found in his belongings?
12. What footwear did he have on when he left?
Some extra thoughts on things that happening around Kevin's disappearance:
Was there any tension between Kevin and New Dad? Is there any reason he may have wanted to avoid mom's wedding?
Was he enrolled for the new school year?
The summary of searches thusfar, please note if I missed anything:
LE/SAR searched daily from Sept 4 - 6, and again 8-11
Crews search for missing hiker in El Paso County
Orgs include EPC Sar, FremontSAR, DCSAR Colorado, Pike National Forest rangers/rescue, FFL helis and horses
Posters were put up along the trails
Here is some info on Colorado Forensic Canines which I am assuming has not been utilised yet and do not always require LE invitation:
