Douglas Gordon Eldred vanished on March 29, 1995, during a trip in the Soldotna area of the Kenai Peninsula. He was 45, with brown hair and green eyes, and described as an experienced outdoorsman comfortable in Alaska’s rugged terrain.

The circumstances point to a boating incident on Kenai Lake that left him in the water. Searches were conducted for him and his vessel, but the lake’s size and icy conditions likely impeded recovery. The official investigation concluded he most likely drowned following the boating accident, though his remains were never recovered and the case remains unresolved for his family.

Did anyone on the Kenai Peninsula in March 1995 see signs of a boating accident or have information about small vessels on Kenai Lake that day?
