Details:
Carl Landers of Orinda, California, disappeared on May 22, 1999, during a hiking excursion on Mt. Shasta with
friends.

He was last seen leaving Camp 50-50, where he and two climbing partners spent the night before their planned
climb to the summit. The next morning, Carl complained of feeling poorly and left ahead of his partners. When
his partners didn't catch up with him they became worried and reported him missing.

Carl was considered a physically fit runner and climber; he was dressed appropriately for the elements and
carried enough food and water to survive in an emergency.
Despite an intensified effort, searchers in air and on ground were unable to find any sign of him.
Carl remains missing.
