Rodney Robert Granroth, 71, disappeared on November 17, 2016 while deer hunting near his family homestead in Portage Township, Michigan. A Hancock resident, he was reported missing around 1:30 p.m. the same day after failing to return from a hunt in the vicinity of Tapiola Road and Kallungi Road. His vehicle and gun case were found at his camp, but Rodney and his rifle were not. He was believed to be wearing hunter-orange and wore prescription glasses; he had gray, receding hair and blue eyes.

A large search began immediately, led by the Houghton County Sheriff’s Office with Superior Search and Rescue, Baraga Search and Rescue, the Michigan DNR, local fire departments and aerial searches by the U.S. Coast Guard and Michigan DNR. Recent snowfall hampered efforts, and despite exhaustive ground and air searches no trace of him has been found. A reward has been offered for information that could lead to an arrest and conviction if foul play was involved.

Does anyone who hunted or lived near Tapiola Road and Kallungi Road in November 2016 recall seeing Rodney or anything unusual that day?
