George O. Bombardier, 55, vanished after a hunting trip in late autumn 1971. He was last seen on November 30, 1971, heading into heavily wooded terrain near Mountain Road, Hayes Brook, and Grass Pond in Rouses Point, New York, wearing a hunting jacket, pants and a hat. An experienced hunter, World War II veteran and father of four, Bombardier worked for the town Department of Public Works sewage treatment facility and had formerly been an engineer for the D&H railroad. He and his wife were known locally as square dancers.

His vehicle was later found abandoned by the Hayes Brook truck trail, a familiar entry point for hunters. The search was quickly complicated by more than a foot of snowfall the night after he disappeared, which likely erased tracks and other signs. Despite an extensive search of the rugged wilderness, no trace of him has ever been found, leaving his family and community with unanswered questions.

If anyone knew George, his usual hunting routes, or was in that area around November 30, 1971, can you share what you remember?
