Details of Disappearance​

Miller was last seen leaving for a two-and-a-half-day hiking trip in Sedona, Arizona on May 19, 1998. He is an experienced hiker and was employed by the Sedona Forest Service at the time he went missing.

Miller never returned from his trip and has not been seen again. His vehicle was found abandoned at the Vultee Arch Trail. He is believed to have become lost or injured in the area, possibly by falling on slippery terrain, but his body has never been found.

Kind of a long shot given the circumstances but this unidentified person has similar features to David. The hair however doesn't match, but I find the face shape and hairline quite similar. No luck otherwise on this one, I think that it is most likely that he's lost somewhere on the trail. Hope the family will get closure some day.

I've attached the post mortem photo below as well as the link.

<<He had only started working for the National Forest Service in April 1998 as a wilderness ranger in Arizona's Coconino National Forest.

Co-workers saw him on May 19 at the Beaver Creek ranger station, and that evening, he left a note at the station saying he was going hiking in the Red Rock/Secret Mountain Wilderness Area>>






Dec 2, 1999
