Circumstances: 31 year old white male from Chicago, Ilinois left Oct. 3, 2010 from Fall Creek Trailhead around 12:30 pm for a 5 day 25 mile solo backpacking trip of the Holy Cross Wilderness. He was suppose to be back at Half Moon Pass trailhead on Oct. 8, 2010 at noon. His fiance and friends waited 7 hours for his return even hiking part of the trail before reporting to the authorities in Eagle County that he was overdue. On Oct. 9, 2010 when he had not returned by 0700 Vail Mountain Resuce launched a search and rescue mission.
The search and rescue consited of volunteers from Larimer and Summit County on foot and with dogs, national guard helicoptors, black hawk helicopters, and night vision helicoptors. After over 1000 man hours and covering James' outlined trail plus other areas with finding no trace or clue, the search was called off on Oct. 12, 2010. A training mission of close to 50 SAR volunteers and two dog teams was conducted on Oct. 16, 2010. Hits from the dogs were gotten on Fall Creek trail and Lake Constantine. Search of the Lake Constantine area yielded no clues or findings. No further searches/training missions were able to be conducted in 2010 due to winter setting in in the mountains and much snow. No official searches by SAR are planed for 2011 due to no physical clues found on the initial search.
