On a summer day in August 1995, 28-year-old Richard Wayne Boussom was tubing the Skagway River in Skagway, Alaska, with two companions when their inner tubes struck a bridge piling and overturned. His companions made it to shore, but Richard was swept away by the current and disappeared. An immediate and extensive search of the river and banks was conducted, but no trace of him was found and his fate remains unknown.

Richard was a white male, about 5 feet 10 inches and 175 pounds, with brown hair, hazel eyes and a gunshot scar on his right shoulder. He was last seen wearing a white t-shirt with tropical fish on the back, dark blue sweatpants with a drawstring waist, a black North Face fleece jacket, black leather tennis shoes and a tie-dye hat. The disappearance was officially reported to the Alaska State Troopers on August 11, 1995.

Did anyone tube the Skagway River that August day who can add details about the location of the bridge piling or the search that followed?
