It seems an odd situation, for sure. He left home and was last known to be near Maple Cypress Rd. that evening. He hasn't been heard from since. I wonder whether he inspected any properties out that way. LE should consider checking recent building permits or property sales information to dig up some potential leads. For example, a property at 400 Maple Cypress Rd sold back on 8 Feb 2021. Maybe he got injured or fell sick while inspecting.

It seems pretty isolated back there. Did he have a vehicle? If so, it could be possible his vehicle isn't visible from the roadway. MOO

I hope he soon makes it home safely.
