Garrett Sheldon Saccheus was 15 when he and 14-year-old Belinda Smith left Golovin, Alaska, on December 27, 2000, riding separate snow machines toward nearby Elim. Garrett is described as American Indian / Alaska Native, with black hair and brown eyes. He was wearing a blue parka, a green jacket, black snow pants, bunny boots, glasses, and carrying a dark-colored bag with extra clothes.

Investigators found tracks that led from Golovin onto the sea ice and then ended abruptly at open water, suggesting the machines may have broken through the ice. Extensive searches were conducted but did not locate Garrett, Belinda, or additional evidence; the active search was later scaled back and the case remains open.

Was anyone in Golovin or Elim on December 27, 2000, who remembers seeing Garrett, Belinda, or their snow machines that day?
