Wilford Ray Johnson, a 90-year-old Navy veteran from Longview, Washington, was last seen on the morning of June 29, 2017, following his usual routine of two walks a day and visits to local eateries. His silver Honda Accord was found the next day high-centered in a roadside ditch inside Gifford Pinchot National Forest, about 100 miles from his home. The keys were inside and a window was broken, though investigators thought the break likely occurred after the car was abandoned. Witnesses reported the vehicle was in that spot as early as 6:00 p.m. the day he disappeared.

Extensive searches of the dense woods around the vehicle turned up no sign of Johnson. His family doubts he would have driven to that remote area or hiked off, and his daughter noted he preferred carrying cash and there has been no activity on his bank account since he vanished. The Cowlitz County Sheriff’s Office lists the case as open and unresolved.

Did anyone in or near Longview remember seeing Wilford Ray Johnson, his Accord, or unusual activity along routes into Gifford Pinchot National Forest around June 29, 2017?
