Foster Bezanson, 64, disappeared after heading out to hunt near Cochrane, Ontario, on October 25, 1980. He was last seen in the area of Abitibi Road 48, a remote, densely wooded region. When he failed to return, searches were conducted but turned up no sign of him.

At the time he went missing he was described as a white male with greying brown, short, balding hair, blue eyes, and a slender build. A distinctive physical detail is that his right index finger was bent inwards. He was reportedly wearing lined green work pants, a red and black plaid hunting jacket, a red foam insulated hat, and brown wool-lined boots, and believed to have been carrying a 30-06 Remington pump-action firearm plus personal items such as a Bic lighter, driver’s licence, vehicle registration and charge cards.

The Ontario Provincial Police list the file as an open missing persons investigation. Does anyone who hunted or travelled Abitibi Road 48 in late October 1980 remember seeing Foster or his vehicle?
