Richard John Malten, 64, was last seen in July 2011 while camping near McGee Creek, a remote area west of Bishop in Inyo County, California. He had a heart condition requiring a pacemaker, and his case is classified as endangered missing because of that medical need.

Forest Service workers found his maroon 2001 Jeep abandoned near McGee Creek; it had been parked there for a significant period. His ex-wife reported him missing in October 2011. Malten is described as a white male, 5 feet 8 inches, about 144 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Despite searches of the rugged terrain, no trace of him has been found and the investigation by the Inyo County Sheriff’s Department has gone cold.

Are there any campers, hikers, or local workers who remember seeing Malten or his Jeep around McGee Creek in summer 2011?
