Duane Vergil Wicklund was a 40-year-old American visitor from Minnesota who vanished on October 7, 1967, while moose hunting on Sturgeon Lake in northwestern Ontario, about 45 miles north of Ignace. He and another American hunter identified as Edward K. Kotula went out by boat loaded with moose and never returned. Three days later searchers found the hunters’ boat overturned and empty, which focused the response on the lake and prompted dragging operations that described the men as apparently drowned.

He is described in one surviving profile as about 5 feet 6 inches, 190 pounds, with grey hair and a beard, a heavy build, a dark complexion, and a scar from his nose toward his upper lip, last seen wearing a red jacket. Does anyone have memories or information about that 1967 trip or sightings on Sturgeon Lake around October 7?
