Lester Joseph Bright, a 58-year-old man, was last seen in Wheat Ridge, Colorado on January 1, 2000. He is described as a Caucasian male, about 5 feet 5 inches tall, 150 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. Reports say he may have been experiencing mental health issues around the time he disappeared.

A notable lead in the case is the possibility that Lester traveled to Great Sand Dunes National Park, though that has not been confirmed. The Wheat Ridge Police Department is the primary agency handling the investigation and continues to seek information. Little else is publicly known about his movements that day or any sightings after January 1.

Did anyone in Wheat Ridge or who visits Great Sand Dunes National Park have contact with Lester around New Year 2000 or recall seeing someone matching his description?
