'Missing 411', by David Paulides: Tracking unusual missing persons cases

“This is a very dangerous mountain that my organization tries to alert PCT hikers to, because they think it’s Southern California, it’s no big deal, but the PCT goes to 9,000 feet on this mountain, and it peaks at over 10,000 feet. And for the early hikers, when there’s snow up there, it’s extremely dangerous,” Tarr said. “There’s a lot of stories on this mountain, and a lot of people who have gone missing.”

Budinski decided to avoid the heavy snow on the trail and instead took a safer route along Black Mountain Road to reconnect with the Pacific Crest Trail on the north side of San Jacinto Peak. He made it back to the Pacific Crest Trail, according to Tarr, who says another hiker confirmed seeing Budinski’s camp set up along the PCT. From his camp, it’s about a 16-mile descent to the base of the mountain, where Budinski had plans to pick up a package from a “trail angel,” who are informal volunteers that support PCT hikers along their journey.

These data points were expected to make the search for Budinski easier, Tarr said. Part of the foundation’s mission is conducting search efforts after official efforts have been suspended, which often occurs when the missing hiker is believed to be deceased.

I just want to share what this organization has done for me and my family. My mother-in-law went missing July 7th 2020. Her car was found two days later in the Idllywild mountains near hiking trails. It was found abandoned because she had actually hit a rock and teeter tottered on it. None of us could figure out whether she actually drove the car up, but we knew there was enough stuff in the car to say that it wasn’t stolen. She was a 73-year-old woman who walked with assistance and had a bad hip. The local sheriff’s department was contacted and we were told that they searched not only with bloodhounds but that a rescue team had looked for her also with the help of helicopters, police and volunteers. Even with all these search efforts, they did not find her. Friends and family hiked the trails screaming for her as we searched but we were not able to find any trace of her. Every month, an editor and writer for a newspaper in idyllwild would write a story about Rosario and other hikers that were missing in the area. It just so happened that Cathy Tarr read this article and thankfully something caught her attention. She got a hold of her crew of the Fowler O’Sullivan Foundation and was able to find Rosario in three days! We waited 7 months with no answers, everyday wondering, everyday crying, everyday wishing. Wishing for a little spark of hope to find our loved one. It was the hardest thing we’ve ever gone through. Thanks to Cathy Tarr and the Fowler O’Sullivan Foundation, my mother-in-law was found within 3 days. It wasn’t the ending we wanted but it was the closure we needed. We are very lucky that the Foundation took it upon themselves to look for her, and buy the grace of God, they found her and we were able to lay her to rest. I pray that anyone in a similar situation has the opportunity for closure like we did. We owe this Foundation so much and will never forget them. We LOVE YOU GUYS!!!! REST IN PEACE ROSARIO “CHATA” GARCIA

David Paulides - Hunter’s Bizarre UFO Abduction Memory Recall
Aug 16, 2024 COAST TO COAST AM Shorts


Update:


From the article about the guy found alive in Idaho:

‘Phan, Zarn and DeMoss stopped at Doreen’s Southfork Saloon in Kooskia, Idaho, on Sunday afternoon to stretch their legs while heading back to Montana from Oregon, Phan said. They had “maybe two beers” and hung out with the locals.’

I laughed when I read that, Dave Paulides would say that’s a sobering coincidence and he was taken.

Or he was just drunk and stopped to pee and got lost in the woods. Anyway, that’s wild he was found.
 
Back in June, with the island case that had taken place, and the attention given to it, David Paulides puts out the following. It is a case from 2011, location Grand Prairie, Alberta (some readers here will well know of the location - and maybe have herd of the case).

This case is still relevant today as it was a missing cases in the usual ways (with many stupid things done by the local RCMP), and it appears, as of 2021, to still be haunting the family as there are signs of their son, Jamie, as he or something keep popping up. David is stumped, there are things going on here that he can't explain.

Couple of notes, it was September. There was a party in the bush and all were drinking. Jamie wanders off (he is upset) at 4:30 am. His friends start looking for him by 5:30 am. Miraculously, at 6 am, a search and rescue crew arrive at the camping area to do training - wow, the timing. The RCMP bring out a dog, where then the handler says there are too many people and kennels it (Paulides is not happy). The family brings out private dogs days later and they immediatly pick up a trail. The trail leads to a tree and the dog stops i.e. up the tree. Then, another dog loops out to a gravel pit 3 miles away and finds a shoe print (size 13 of a very unique shoe that Jamie had bought a pair of a few days prior). The dog then tracks to a highway, and this is where the whole story takes a twist unto this day.

For western Canadians, perhaps have a look in the very remote chance that this boy (no longer being 13 years later) might be out there.

Really odd!


Here is what David has out just in the last 3 weeks:

There is a recent missing case from Turkey. A Russian tourist went missing after going alone for a walk, and then found dead after several days of an extensive search.

Not saying that it is a bona fide 411 case, but there are some matching strange facts. The following is a Deepl translation from Turkish.

Russian Natalya, who disappeared in Marmaris, was found dead: The phone detail is surprising!

Russian tourist Natalya Somova left her hotel in Marmaris on August 17 to go hiking and was never heard from again. Teams started a search for Somova in an 11-kilometer area. As a result of the efforts, the lifeless body of the unfortunate woman was reached. The phone detail surprised. Here are the details of the news...

Natalya Somova, who came to Marmaris from Moscow for vacation and left the hotel she stayed in on August 17 for a nature walk, did not return to her country and her family reported her missing.

After her relatives reported the situation to the hotel and tour agency, search efforts were launched for Natalya Somova on August 19. The unfortunate woman's phone and lifeless body were found at different points.

After examining the security cameras of the district one by one, it was determined that the 48-year-old tourist last visited the Karya walking path in İçmeler Neighborhood around 07.30 am on August 17.

Coordinated by AFAD Muğla team; Marmaris Public Security Bureau teams, Gendarmerie public order and commando teams, Coast Guard and relatives of the missing woman as well as many NGOs participated in a large-scale search.

On the night of the first day, a shopping receipt from Moscow was found in the steep terrain. Yesterday, a cell phone was found in a steep and cliffy area in the İçmeler neighborhood. The teams started working to determine whether the cell phone belonged to the woman or not. Since August 19, when the missing person was reported, the police and gendarmerie teams have been searching in the district and Turunç Neighborhood, which is the other exit point of the 11-kilometer Karya walking path, and when no images were detected in the camera recording examinations, the search efforts were intensified again on the İçmeler Kızılbük side.

Marmaris Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, which has been following the issue since the first day, took action for the cell phone found by the search and rescue teams in the steep and cliffy area, and went to the area where the phone was found together with the crime scene investigation teams and started the identification work.

According to the news of Yeni Asır; After the cell phone found by the search and rescue teams in the steep area, the lifeless body of 48-year-old Natalya Somova was reached in the area close to the sea after the search efforts were carried out on the road leading to the cliff by descending with ropes and the area was searched again by coast guard teams from the sea and by drone from the air.

The woman's body was taken from the sea by coast guard teams and brought to land.
While the secret death of the unfortunate woman remains a mystery, a large-scale investigation is ongoing. The exact cause of Somova's death will be determined after the autopsy. The unfortunate woman's phone and lifeless body were found at different points.

So the phone was in the same area as her body and helped the rescuers to find her body. Also a receipt was found in the steep terrain, but it's not clear how close it was to the phone or the body. What is clear that there was a distance between all these items and the body, and that's why this particular point was emphasized. Also in the pictures it's possible to see how challenging the terrain was, so if this was a "mundane" case of assult and murder, it sounds crazy that there would be a continuous struggle that would cause Natalya to lose her phone, or that the murderer would carry their victim or the body to the shore. I also wonder how possible it would be to fall from the cliff and then end up on the shore. It's possible, but not clear, since we don't know exactly where the body or the phone were found.

It's also unclear what the autopsy would show, and if these details would ever be released. Will see.

After nearly two weeks, a remarkably lucky Sacramento woman has been found safe by search teams in Nevada County.

Esmeralda Marie Pineda, 24, was reported missing on Aug. 26 after disappearing from a mining camp in Nevada City, a Gold Rush town about 60 miles north of Sacramento. It was believed she had last been spotted near the middle fork of the Yuba River and Sweetland Creek, the sheriff's office said at the time.

Day after day, searchers combed the river area, looking for Pineda. The canyon is “treacherous” and needed specialized searchers with the skills to rappel “into and out of the canyon to look for her,” the Nevada County Sheriff’s Office said.

On Friday, sheriff’s office Sgt. Dustin Moe and his partner were driving around the area in an off-road vehicle when they spotted a woman.

It was Pineda, “severely dehydrated and emaciated” and in need of “immediate medical attention.” Less than an hour later, a helicopter was able to air-lift her to a nearby hospital. Ultimately, Pineda had not gone far from where she was last seen; authorities said she was discovered “on the top of the river canyon in the vicinity of the Yuba River and Sweetland Creek.”

The missing woman was last seen in Nevada City. Nevada County Sheriff's Office

“The Sheriff’s Office and our search and rescue volunteers covered extensive ground throughout our search, and we are thankful today to find her alive,” Moe said in a statement.

It’s not clear how Pineda found herself so lost, but Moe told KYMA that she had been camping with friends when she decided she wanted to go home to Sacramento. When the friends awoke on the morning of Aug. 26, Pineda had disappeared. To get to the top of the river canyon, Moe said she would have had quite the climb.

"She probably had to scale around an 800-foot vertical foot climb to get up out of the canyon,” he told KYMA. “And it's not just a gradual, nice walk up. It's on your hands and feet, climbing up the canyon walls.

While I was looking for information on an entirely different story, I came across this incident from British Columbia, Canada.

Body recovered from B.C. lake after unclothed man leads investigators to crash site

Mounties are investigating a fatal crash north of Whistler, B.C., after an unclothed man who was found along the side of the road led police to a pickup truck submerged in a lake with one occupant still inside.
Apparently, a naked man was found on the side of the road after having driven into a lake with another occupant still inside the truck. The police search the lake finding a "small debris field", but no vehicle. Then the next day, they happen to find the truck. Bizarre.
First responders conducted extensive patrols of the lake through the night and eventually located a "small debris field" but no sign of a vehicle, the local RCMP said in a statement Monday.

An RCMP dive team was called to the scene the following day and found the black Dodge Ram pickup in the lake with one person dead inside.
 
Another one from British Columbia, Canada:

Young girl found safe after 3 nights alone in northern B.C. forest​

Schweder was located in an area “between her residence and the band office" that had previously been searched, said Sgt. Vanessa Munn with the RCMP. “She actually walked up to one of the searchers and gave them a big hug and didn’t let go.”

Searchers believe the child was “likely moving around during the time she was missing," added Munn.
 
New movie is out!
In circles researching the hyper-dimensions and investigating Missing-411 cases, another blockbuster movie from visionary M. Night Shyamalan detailing inter-dimensional [time] travel came out:

Caddo Lake (2024)

Highlights:
(Movie time is shown as 00 hours : 00 mins : 00 seconds into the movie)

1. Crossing realm borders, small alternate dimensional areas do cause serious strain on the human nervous system, which is a bio-mechanical machine itself operating on weak electricity. Crossing trauma is demonstrated at 01:09:55 and 01:30:08. Also in the movie Terminator 1 - and the sequels - , where our human hero feels intense pain and shock when arriving, via time travel, into the past. Several movies were inspired by this idea, I think instinctively correctly, that crossing the electromagnetic time barriers between past and future strains and pains the human body significantly.

2. Missing 411 victims reported disorientation. Such crossing over journeys may involve various intensities of pain as well. Deadly in many cases, as the modern delicate human nervous system can only take minimal amounts of damage and remain intact. Just ask the victims of the Dyatlov Pass incident when you meet them in 5th Density!

3. In this movie other realms / other dimensions are connected through an invisible 'Swiss Cheese'-style labyrinthine tunnel system. This is the basic technological template of the Shyamalan movies. Dot-connect to Castaneda. Multiple Hollywood movies inspired this fact correctly, I think. Dot-connect to the myth of the Minotaur's Labyrinth, which itself could have been a place, where you could cross OVER into other realms and dimensions loosely existing on the same hyperdimensional FRV level with some level-fluctuations. Thread of Ariadne myth may directly connect to the Hidden Art & Mastery of Find Your Way Back.
In the end, Glinda reveals that Dorothy can return home by simply closing her eyes, clicking the ruby slippers' heels together three times, and repeating the sentence, "There's no place like home."

4. GPS Disturbance at 00:48:05
Same as rolling compass magnetic anomaly losing direction. Weakened Realm Barrier / dimensional border closeness causes GPS signal to jump a couple hundred yards and back, in the movie, when our heroine attempts to pinpoint her location on the digital map: WHERE AM I???

5. Animals and now extinct moth species from different times - 1952....2005.....2022 - do cross over in the movie: Dot-connect to Loch Ness and many other similar places in the world, where prehistoric creatures have been sighted, met and are found alive or caught by fishermen in our real world as recounted in the books of John Keel and Linda S. Godfrey (Monsters Amoung Us), and in social media / YT.

6. First confirmed Crossing at 00:49:05: Time-discontinuity is a possibility regards Missing 411 cases detailing found bodies. Time travel - various distances - when the person stumbling through realm border / dimensional barrier finds herself in a different year, immediately signified by sudden change of the sun's position in the sky. Suddenly night / late afternoon turns into bright sunny daylight time. See Third Crossing at 01:05:41 and 8th Crossing at 01:08:48

7. Second Crossing at 00:49:05: serious shock to the human nervous system and physiology. While rugged bruiser Bigfoot is thought to be able to freely move between these bi-density areas and probably takes these "transfer shocks" easily because a lot better accustomed.
Note: trekking route's soil sudden changes and why Missing-411 persons reported suffering falling damage, broken bones, bruises. Probably when Crossing Over - into different geography and momentarily finding themselves in a hazardous trekking area while anticipating "walking through a gentle meadow".
In the movie: different time of year and flooding caused mud-pits to appear and the heroine steps into one of these natural "swamp-traps". People could go missing simply, because they Cross over into an other dimensional area and step directly into a swamp or tumble on a steep hillside existing only in the other dimension. Suffering injuries, sprained ankles that slow movement.

8. 4th Crossing at 01:06:15: we observe how music, sound - yells - and noise can propagate THROUGH these temporarily connected other-dimensional areas where people can get entrapped - See how Castaneda's Don Juan got his white hair: his master entrapped him in probably such an other-dimensional prison. Dot-Connect to Missing 411 cases, where cries for help - of the missing victim - can be heard from close by, but the searchers cannot see the victim as he/she is entrapped inside an 'other dimensional area' on the other side of a 'realm border'. From that place the victim CAN SEE the searchers in OUR WORLD, but the searchers cannot see the Missing-411 victim in the alien dimension. Demonstrated in the movie by the 5th Crossing at 01:06:39

9. 6th Crossing at 01:07:16: space-time flow disturbances are a distinct possibility dictated by changed electromagnetic properties of the unstable anomalous area. Demonstrated in the movie as a you see blurry people moving in a medium of blurred "wind" visual overlay effect / AKA forced slow-moving in your nightmares / partial sleep paralysis

10. Using any string as per the Thread of Ariadne myth to find your way back is demonstrated at the 7th Crossing 01:08:48. Also demonstrated in the movie Parallel (2024). If - in the future - such "sliding alternate dimensional crusts" become mainstream, I think its a good idea to peruse the Thread of Ariadne myth. It worked in the movies.
In this movie and a couple others it is demonstrated that as a sliding [plate tectonics / swimming arctic ice slabs] sliding alternate dimensional area moves OUT OF ALIGNMENT with our time & dimension, strings or ropes - representing physical connection - leading THROUGH these "tunnels" can suddenly get CUT. Think of how a harbored boat's ropes can snap in storms, when the two different connecting environments = 1. stormy-changing-sea and 2. solid ground at the harbor get misaligned amidst the chaos. When "traversable tunnel" connections between to such alternating dimensions (travel-able points in time) get cut, the heroes of movie's and TV shows say:
- Hurry up! The portal is closing!!
