From the link: "Nearing may have mental issues and he is known to walk his dog along the bayou, according to reports."

Family found the dog, but no sign of Nearing.

Not much to see unfortunately, but he seems like an incredibly intelligent guy and has such an open, friendly smile.

This is less than a mile from me. A friend used to live on Wickwillow. The road is a very long, dead end road, with the bayou at the end of the culdesac. It's a pretty wooded and secluded area.

Here is the area being searched off Wickwillow at Chocolate Bayou.

Unfortunately EquuSearch has suspended the search until they feel like they have additional information that proves they need to continue the search.
He walked his dog along chocolate bayou daily. I grew up on Wickwillow and my dad still lives there on ten acres. This street is not a neighborhood street. It's out in the country to give a better visual.

Still no update. Forrest has officially been added to NamUs.

Do people swim in the Bayou? I'm not familiar with this part of the country and having an idea if Forrest would have voluntarily entered the water would be quite helpful.

The bayou is very murky muddy at the end of Wickwillow. The road dead ends to a culdesac. There are a few houses on acreage also. It's in Brazoria County. If a person wanted to swim there, I suppose you could, but I certainly wouldn't want to. Forrest lives up near the entrance to Wickwillow, maybe 6 or 7 houses on the left going towards the culdesac/bayou. Chocolate Bayou is to the left of the culdesac, you can see how it winds around corners and is covered by trees and foliage as well.

Thank you for your response. Forrest's dog being wet made me wonder if he could have had an accident while swimming, although it seems unlikely that this would be the case now. I knew Forrest very briefly over twenty years ago as a friend of a friend but can confirm that he is a very special soul, one that deserves all the good energy and prayers that can be made at this time. I feel awful for his family and loved ones, and hope answers to his disappearance come soon.

I didn't know Forrest, but we live close by and a friend of mine lived on that road for more than 20 years and we've walked up and down it many times. My husband and I volunteered several times and drove over to help search, but Texas Equusearch turned us away every time. Very disappointing. I even called TES and was still told our help was not needed. So we drove up and down what parts of the bayou we could access by truck. The bayou was only knee deep in the area he went missing. The media made it sound as if he might have drowned in the deep bayou. Maybe further down that could happen, but not right where the dog was found. Now I've seen post on our local forums that in my opinion, I think he's possibly alive and just needs time to sort things out. That is my opinion of course, after actually driving to the area he went missing from. I hope and pray that this is the case, as I feel for his family the not knowing. I have heard and read nothing but kind words about Forrest. He is loved by many.
