Terry Lee Rogers, 26, disappeared from a campsite southeast of Bend, Oregon, over the Memorial Day weekend in 1973. An experienced outdoorsman and former Mount Bachelor ski patroller, he was last seen by a friend at his campsite below a bluff on the Deschutes River on May 27, 1973. His 1949 Dodge pickup remained parked on the bluff with a bag of recently purchased groceries inside.

When two friends visited the site on the evening of May 29, they found Rogers’ campsite deserted. His wallet, glasses and all camping gear were left behind, and there was no sign of a struggle. Deschutes County Search and Rescue, friends and a helicopter conducted a three-day search on foot, horseback and from the air but found no trace.

No solid leads have emerged and the disappearance remains unresolved. If anyone knew Terry, the route he might have taken from that stretch of river, or was in the area that weekend, please share what you know.
