Trying to figure out where exit 247 is on 169 - it doesn't seem like the exits are numbered. could this mean mile marker 247 or exit to 247th street?

Last seen in a neighborhood - whose house was he at? where did he say he was going?

169 is rural but definitely not the middle of nowhere. lots of towns along the highway and houses on the road in some places.

Thanks! That location definitely seems more rural....MOO JMO I wonder if he was carjacked and the car was ditched there?

I'm fairly local to this case and friends have been out on horseback every day searching for Jordan. I wish I could join them but we've got an event this weekend and I have to prepare our facility.

It's not looking good at this point, 3 days later. We had terrible high winds and a blizzard Tuesday night, with very low "feels like" temperatures, ice, and a few inches of snow. Sadly, given that he made statements about harming himself, I believe he is within a couple mile radius of his car. At this point, being fairly immersed in the community, I hope he is found by LE or SAR and not an unsuspecting property owner.

I'm glad that the community is looking for him and really hope he is found safe, just taking a break somewhere.

I'm sad that there's not more local coverage of this case. Even my clients who live in the same county haven't heard about Jordan. I hate how possible self-harm stigmatizes a missing person.
