Erik Jonathan Kveum, 21, was in Juneau, Alaska, in late summer 2000 and last had contact on September 6, 2000. That day he and 40-year-old Charles Johnson set out in a 20-foot aluminum setnet skiff; their destination and the full purpose of the trip are not clear from reports. Small craft warnings were in effect for the area at the time.

The skiff was later found capsized near Ocean Cape on the southwest shore of Yakutat. Troopers searched the area but were unable to locate either man; both are officially presumed deceased. Erik is described as a white male with blond or strawberry-colored hair, brown eyes, and was reportedly wearing blue jeans when last seen.

What details about their final trip might help fill the remaining gaps in this case for those who knew them or were in the area on September 6, 2000?
