- Notes
- The last sighting of Thomas was when he left home to head down to the Rogue River for some fishing. He liked to set up his poles around 4 miles outside of Prospect, 6 miles up the river from Lost Creek Dan. The place had a cable car over the river that could be used to fish from overhead. Thomas never made it back home, but police were able to find his fishing polce and some of the figh he'd gotten. There were outside of the cable car, which was stopped over the middle of the river. One of the dogs was able to find Thomas' scent near two footprints on the ground close to the cable car area.
