Two things come to mind regarding the posts about hunting season for bears, mountain lions, and wolves as well as the hunters themselves. I recently suggested the possibility and have not heard back yet from the reporter, Nate Eaton, regarding the rallying of hunters, who are excellent trackers along with SAR to search now instead of in the future when a hunter may incidentally find Deorr. Additionally, the fact that there is bear, mountain lion, and wolves hunted in the area just reinforces to me the idea that sweet Deorrr may have taken by a large, predator.
I've thought the same since little Deorr vanished, and apparently that's exactly what happened. The outfitters that have the units surrounding that area have successful hunts. Of course, of the three large predators, the mountain lion is the one who fits the bill, so to speak, when a small child vanishes in an instant. The tree line "appears" to be close enough to the campsite for a mountain lion to have been stalking little Deorr without ever having been seen. I wonder how far the tree line actually is?
