Eleanor Ruth Cannon was 20 when she disappeared from Oak Harbor, Washington. She was last seen on September 15, 2021. Eleanor is described as having red hair, blue eyes and several distinctive tattoos: Roman numerals on her right forearm, a Czech word on her collarbone, and a Scorpio symbol behind her ear.

In the early morning of September 16, 2021, Eleanor’s parents’ vehicle was found abandoned on Deception Pass Bridge. A passing driver reported seeing a female on the bridge at about 1:58 a.m.; the person was wearing short shorts, a gray hoodie-style sweatshirt, and flip-flops, clothing believed to match what Eleanor was wearing. An Island County Sheriff’s Office deputy checked the bridge about 2:15 a.m. but did not locate the woman.

Searches of the north and south shorelines of Deception Pass that morning, and expanded hiking searches by detectives the next day, turned up nothing. The circumstances remain unexplained and the family continues to seek answers. If anyone saw Eleanor around Deception Pass on the night of September 15–16, 2021, or has information about her movements that evening, please come forward.
