Not a good thing. My family and I spent several winters in Gold Beach, quite a few places to "get lost"
Of more concern, according to an LEO friend of mine in the area, there is a lot of "growing" activity..

If police found their picking gear, it doesn’t sound like they simply got lost.

The three were last seen a-pickin’ and a-grinnin’.

The mushroom picking has some money in it so it’s competitive. Some Asian groups don’t play well (or pick well as they have mistaken toadstools for Asian mushrooms and paid the price). Some Thai friends of ours have been threatened by competitors.

I don’t think there is much growing activity in February.

Maybe they’re lying under some tree tripping like all get out after having what they thought were butter-fried morels.

Remember the James Kim story? No place to go wandering around lost, especially in winter.

It doesn't bode well.
Anyone know if pot growers work grow operations outdoors in the winter in that area?

Tragic story, that. Definitely rugged country, and if one gets stuck in the snow (doesn’t appear to be the case here) then it is a long way out, and easy for some to get turned around.

There have been killings over picking “Salal” (SP?) out near Forks, WA. Wild greenery that florists add to their arrangements. Same thing - good money and real competitive. I do wonder about the time of year for mushrooms. The ones in my yard came and went awhile ago.

They left their dogs in camp while they went traipsing through the woods? Somehow, that doesn’t sound right.
