Paul Woodworth Kelley, 38, was last seen on May 28, 1996, while on a boating trip at Wilson Lake, about 50 miles east of Ketchikan. He had been staying with three companions at a Forest Service cabin near the lake’s southern end and went out alone in a skiff that was later found empty and adrift about an eighth of a mile from the cabin.

An initial search of the immediate area turned up nothing, and despite subsequent, less-detailed efforts, no trace of Kelley was ever found. Given the circumstances of the empty boat on the lake, he is presumed to have drowned in Wilson Lake, but his body has not been recovered and the exact circumstances remain unresolved.

Did anyone in the area at the time see a small skiff on Wilson Lake or have information about where Kelley might have gone that day?
