JC Krieg, 68, was last heard from on June 25, 2017, while living in the rural, high‑altitude community of Cotopaxi in Fremont County, Colorado. He is described as about 6 feet 1 inch tall, 150 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. Family members say periods without contact were not unusual, but the silence after that June day grew steadily more worrying and there are few concrete details about when he was last seen or what he was wearing.

The Fremont County Sheriff’s Office opened an investigation but has few leads; the case is now treated as a cold case. The disappearance left family and investigators with unanswered questions about how a man living a quiet, secluded life could simply vanish with no trace. Anyone who knew JC Krieg or who may have information about his whereabouts is asked to contact the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office.
