Leetus Lorenzo George, 61, was last seen in July 2003 near Six Mile Creek in Hope, Alaska, where he had been spending time outdoors. He was an avid outdoorsman and was believed to be wearing brown chest waders when he disappeared. The Alaska State Troopers opened an investigation and extensive search and rescue efforts followed, but no definitive evidence or remains have been found.

Given the creek’s strong currents and cold mountain runoff, drowning has been the prevailing theory, but the exact circumstances and date of his disappearance remain vague. His case remains open with the Alaska State Troopers and his family continues to lack closure.

If anyone was in the Hope area around Six Mile Creek in July 2003 or has information about Leetus George, please come forward with any details that might help.
