Lewis Selam, 71, was last seen March 16, 2022, in Warm Springs, Oregon. Known as Louie, he was an enrolled member of the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation and was of Nez Perce, Umatilla and Yakama descent. On the day he vanished he was seen at the Warm Springs Tribal Credit Enterprise; he was believed to be wearing a gray Adidas sweatshirt with three black stripes, new blue jeans and boots.

A few days later his white 2005 Toyota Celica hatchback was found abandoned, locked and stuck in the snow near the intersection of the P500 and P200 roads in an area called Peter’s Pasture at the base of Mount Jefferson, roughly 18 or 19 miles from the community. The car still contained his usual hat, groceries and dog food. Search and rescue teams followed scent-tracking dogs to a rimrock area but were unable to locate him and the formal search was called off around the end of March 2022 for lack of substantial evidence. His family continues to search.

Does anyone who was in the Mount Jefferson area that mid-March 2022 recall seeing a white Celica or Lewis around Peter’s Pasture?
