Samuel Sammy Boehlke, age 8, vanished while hiking with his father near Cleetwood Cove in Crater Lake National Park, Oregon, on October 14, 2006. He was last seen about 4:00 p.m. after running ahead up a cinder slope and disappearing into dense woods. He wore a long-sleeved black and green striped shirt, cargo pants, a blue winter coat, and red suede shoes.

More than 200 people took part in an extensive search covering roughly six square miles that used dogs, helicopters and heat-sensing cameras. Cold, wet and snowy weather moved in, and helicopters later identified tracks that were determined to be from wildlife. Foul play is not suspected; it is believed he likely became lost or injured and succumbed to the elements. A memorial service was held in November 2006.

Does anyone who visited Cleetwood Cove or hiked those trails around October 14, 2006 remember seeing Samuel or anything unusual that afternoon?
