James T. Dimick was 30 when he disappeared from Northeast Portland, Oregon. He was last seen by his roommate on November 22, 1989, leaving their residence en route to his job at Omark Industries in Milwaukie. He never arrived at work and was not heard from again; his family reported him missing to the Portland Police Bureau.

On December 3, 1989, James’s bronze Chevrolet Camaro was found abandoned at the end of a U.S. Forest Service road in a remote, snow-covered area of Mount Hood National Forest. Some windows on the car were broken, but the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office reported no direct evidence of foul play at the vehicle. Snow depth indicated the car had been driven to that location no later than November 24, 1989. An extensive eight-day search within a roughly 20–25 mile radius of the car turned up no trace of James.

Family members said he had paid off all his debts in the two weeks before he vanished and that he had been a little depressed about his job, but they did not believe he was suicidal. The circumstances remain unresolved and the disappearance is unexplained. Did anyone in the Portland or Mount Hood area see James or his Camaro in late November 1989?
