One location of interest to investigators was Stone Reservoir, a body of water located next to Timber Creek Campground. Authorities feared DeOrr might have accidentally fallen in and drowned.
Divers searched the reservoir on four different occasions, including during the first day of the search. Investigators also flew over a helicopter to search the clear water and
used sonar technology to scan the reservoir.

Searches of reservoir, wolf den yield no clues in hunt for Idaho toddler
For the past 10 days, Lemhi County Sheriff Lynn Bowerman and his deputies have scoured the rugged terrain surrounding a remote Idaho campsite for a missing 2 year-old boy --
using sonar imaging equipment to probe a nearby reservoir and searching a wolf den for any trace of the child.
Cadaver dogs led law enforcement directly to the reservoir but Bowerman said unrelated cremated remains dumped into the water during the search likely prompted the canines' interest. A search of the reservoir
using advanced sonar equipment yielded nothing, he said.
