Clyde Bowman, 57, was last seen November 8, 1981, on a hunting trip in Salmon National Forest in Lemhi County, Idaho. He vanished during the outing and never contacted family or authorities again. At the time he was described with graying brown hair, brown eyes, between 5 feet 7 inches and 5 feet 11 inches tall and 160 to 190 pounds; he was wearing a denim jacket, jeans, and a cowboy hat.

Extensive searches failed to locate Bowman. Investigators believe he may have become lost or injured in the rugged forest terrain and presume he succumbed to the elements, but no remains or clear evidence have been found. The Lemhi County Sheriff’s Office classifies the case as cold but keeps the file open for any information that could bring closure.

If anyone remembers Clyde Bowman, his last known movements in the Salmon National Forest, or has information about that hunting trip, please share what is known.
