Today we search the Mojave desert near the I-40 rest area in Essex Califonia where Cara was supposedly last seen. Please read the video description for more information. I hope we can make a difference. Let's bring Cara home.
Chigg if she was dropped off at the truck stop it would seem logical that she would have probably hitched hike a ride with a trucker going east if she was from Oklahoma. A trucker who drives that route on I-40 would be familiar with the truck stops going east. I think you have to go east of the truck stop to find her and it would seem logical that she would be on the south side of Interstate 40 in a worst case scenario in a remote part in between truck stops. Study a map from her last known location going east and look at the truck stops and the terrain and roads on the south side of Interstate 40. If she's out there I think she's at least 20 mi to 50 Mi east of the truck stop in Essex california.
Pretty sure the bit of fence that was turned out was to encourage the tortoises to turn around. The fence was transiting from chain link to barbed wire. The tortoises hit the fence line and they cant get through the chain link so they follow fence line until it ends or turns into barbed wire, which they can pass under, and they head up to the freeway. To keep them from getting smashed on the freeway they put up chain link in areas with lots of tortoises. When they hit that turned out bit of fence and follow it around they are heading back the way they came, hopefully angled away from the fence line back out into the desert away from the freeway.
I remember them putting up that turtle fence. I've also been traveling that hwy since it was first done or 4 lanes. The last 13 years was every day. And in all that time I've never seen a turtle smash on the hwy.
You have to put your mind in that of a murderous boyfriend, if she was murdered, and what would do ? I don't think he would be that obvious and bury her close to the highway. Mine shafts are too well known. Probably well into the desert, away from anything.
You need a travel partner on these excursions, for safety reasons. Your poor wife probably worries the whole time you are gone. Bless you for your tenacity and sense of adventure. Safe travels.
You know of course since the woman disappeared there has been a whole lot of monsoon rains out there. If a body were placed somewhere in the area you are searching, it could be miles and miles away by now. Of course you've already recorded all this but still wish you all the best, stay safe.
I stopped off at a rest stop out that way years ago and I was stretching the legs also kicking things over, poking around, flipped over a piece of plywood and it had a tarantula under it.🥺 .....I Screamed Like a Little Girl and Ran My Ass About 50 Foot Away Before I Stopped😱😱😱 I Needed No Coffee For The Rest Of The Trip Back To Orange County!😅
I was driving along 15 in the desert and stopped at a road stop once. Found a cooler with a Red Cross on it. Opened it up and on ice was a human toe ! Called the State Patrol. The officer came and refused to take it. Yeah. He said that I needed to call a toe truck 😂
I can just hear the boyfriend watching you saying you’re getting colder getting colder oh hotter getting hotter. Talking about looking for a needle in a haystack this is it.
Likely the guy isn't going to name the parking spot area he would have dumped her. I'd check other ones along the route elsewhere. Also doubt he dug a hole and buried her. Probably night time he just carried them a bit and dumped in an inconspicuous place. Kudos for looking though Bo.
I bicycled through that highway in 2017 and I took a rest at the wash you are filming wow what a coincidence I was there in Feb of 2017. Get a bed sheet soak in water cut some holes for ventilation and drape it over your bike that will help with heat
Hi Chigg! 🏜️ Another great video! Wow I could comment so much on part 3 but this time I'm just going to say "take more than one bottle of water with you, especially when there's no shade around Beau, sheeesh!"☺️🐢 #chiggarmy
Oh ... I think if he lied about the casino ... that he is lying about the rest stop! Most trucks have GPS trackers these days and I would be more interested in a stop away from the eyes of others.
This is an interesting trip so far, thanks for taking us along with you! Under that bridge, if you moved some of those rocks and buried a body then put the rocks back, probably never be found.
if i was you i would buy the new dji drone and grid it off. looking for disturbance that means bare soil with no plants and a shade darker if observed this should be evident with arial footage or unnatural buildup of brush or rocks unnaturally placed and this you can do easy and less leg work but be sure to study the footage. great vid chig as always
That's for being you beau. Thanks for helping and doing your best to find this woman. I wish more was out there searching. You know so much about alot of stuff that's for sure. I pray she's out there somewhere alive but if not I pray she is found. And I feel if she's out there u will find her b4 anyone else. Maybe mroe people will see this and get out there and search as well. Thanks being so awesome
All the burnt up trash/tires your seeing could've been from a brush fire in that area. Bottles thrown from vehicles land and shatter into pieces and can act like a magnifying glass to start the brush/trash on fire. Happens all the time during the summer months.
Just came across your channel, watched a video of an old military base you checked out in the desert. Came to your page to see what else you got going on, and I see you are volunteering a search effort. I have great respect for those like you, and you have another follower. I hope this gal is found, bring her home!
so tell us, did you buy this ticket? ''The winning ticket was sold at Joe's Service Center in Altadena, Calif., according to the California Lottery. The official Powerball website said that ticket was the sole winner of the top prize.''
Hubcap Annie got her start that way! You are doing a great service Chigg I hope the young woman is found safe, but it is highly unlikely. I would bet money you are the only person that has even looked under that plywood. A person could have moved enough of those rocks , put her body in the hole and covered it back up and in a month no one would be able to tell.
Truck tires on dually’s can get flat and you won’t know it until it’s smoking or catch fire. Tire gets changed and they just push the over heated tire off into the ditch instead of transporting it. Much safer that way.
I don’t believe he did anything at the rest area i think that’s just were he reported her missing. To make it appear that they were in middle of the no mans land.
In the off chance he was lying about the actual location. There are 3 more rest areas in a 50 / 60 mile radius from Needles. First being closest to Essex would be in Nevada on the 95 highway going to Las Vegas NV just north of CalnevAri between Searchlight. 2nd would be in Arizona Between Kingman and Lake Havasu turn off. 3rd would be south Vidal Junction, really a lot of Truckers use that area to rest, mostly just a vacant town now.
Watching this I’m glad to be ripping by in my air conditioned car at 80 mph, tunes blaring sipping on my Ice tea. To old for this shit. Thanks Chigg for showing me why I have AAA.
If he said she got out there and walked off. A Slim chance of him even Lying . She is Not there. Follow his path before he got there. . . Guessing he would be seen with cameras. Could be after.
I know you didn't want to get in too deep up under that overpass with that plywood. But I saw that one rock stuck in the ground vertically at the one end of it and thought, man that looks like a headstone. I so wished you would have moved the plywood fully and done a bit of digging. Who know what could be buried just a few inches down.
that was my thought too especially that stone sticks out like a sore thumb there are no other stones in that edge except that one and it is quite thin and stands straight up if such a stone was washed there you would say it was would lay flat. this one seems to be set up on purpose
I would think anything the guy shared was misinformation . He could have stopped 100 miles before or after where he claimed they parted. If he dumped her body .
That little curved wire fence it called a turtus 🐢 turn around its keeps the turtus off the highway, it sends them the other way , those Mojave green rattler is no joke , lol thanks BigAl California praise Jesus Christ grace grace grace amen 🙏
I drive that section of 40 every month, always wondered whats around and under the bridges. Now i dont have too thanks.. There are trilobites in that area i want to see. Performed one snoop and poop of the area, was too hot still and no shade, no services. Thinking march. I like looking around too. Plastic bags and igloos i found had dogs in them. sad.
I applaud you for going out of your way to search for this poor woman. Let’s pray we find some answers for her sister and family. And if this man is responsible for her demise, that he gets the justice he deserves!
Desert freeways are often lined with pieces of recapped big rig tires. They seem to come apart easily maybe because of heat. I wonder if Caltrans piles up the pieces and burn them rather than place them in a dump truck and hauled off.
Well, if there were trucks in the rest area at the time she got out, she could have gotten a ride out, in which case, expands the search area to the rest of the country.
Just a thought but if he left her somewhere and is smart he would claim the last area he saw her was an area from where he actually left her. To get people to search in the wrong area.
I now have no desire to see the Mojave desert.however glad to find this video tonight because I have spent 10 days making election canvassing calls and needed to get far far away from that! ..this poor soul. Like poor Gabby Potito, really terrible life choices out of loneliness led to her end. Very very tragic. I remember when I was young there was that horrible movie looking for mr Goodbar.. Rare outcomes in those days now it seems common. I'm glad I was young and stupid when it was still relatively safe to be young and stupid.

Let's bring Cara home.
Oh my nenith Chigg, beware of the Mojave desert serial murrrrdereeeeerrrrr😱😱😱😱
I guess AWP won’t be taking this one huh ? 🤷🏻

I agree with that, odd with the open fance to the side but it will help.
I remember them putting up that turtle fence. I've also been traveling that hwy since it was first done or 4 lanes. The last 13 years was every day. And in all that time I've never seen a turtle smash on the hwy.
respect for anyone who gets off their butt and actually searches for missing people.
You have to put your mind in that of a murderous boyfriend, if she was murdered, and what would do ? I don't think he would be that obvious and bury her close to the highway. Mine shafts are too well known. Probably well into the desert, away from anything.
Still searching for me, but think I am getting close.
I agree, Chigg takes a working vacation.
You need a travel partner on these excursions, for safety reasons. Your poor wife probably worries the whole time you are gone. Bless you for your tenacity and sense of adventure. Safe travels.
(Kicks a wheel cover) "Probably shouldnt do that. There might be a snake under it. Shouldnt kick stuff."
Immediately kicks another wheel cover. 7:58
You know how it is.....
This woman weighed 170 pounds, Thats a lot of dead weight to be carrying very far.
You know of course since the woman disappeared there has been a whole lot of monsoon rains out there. If a body were placed somewhere in the area you are searching, it could be miles and miles away by now. Of course you've already recorded all this but still wish you all the best, stay safe.
That's what she said 🤣🤣😄 it's always funnier from you because I'm not expecting it.
Maybe she left her stuff behind because he was freaking her the heck out. If she got murdered by the 2nd driver she could be anywhere in the u.s.
Chigg, this is that one time your drone would have been ideal.
Exactly what I was thinking👍 He said he was intending on using the drone, let's see if he brings it for part 4 💯
I stopped off at a rest stop out that way years ago and I was stretching the legs also kicking things over, poking around, flipped over a piece of plywood and it had a tarantula under it.🥺
.....I Screamed Like a Little Girl and Ran My Ass About 50 Foot Away Before I Stopped😱😱😱
I Needed No Coffee For The Rest Of The Trip Back To Orange County!😅
lol...
I kept saying there is probably going to be critters under any wood in the desert. Snakes, lizards, scorpions, etc. and yes tarantulas! 😆
I was driving along 15 in the desert and stopped at a road stop once. Found a cooler with a Red Cross on it. Opened it up and on ice was a human toe !
Called the State Patrol. The officer came and refused to take it.
Yeah.
He said that I needed to call a toe truck 😂
I hope Chigg reads this joke because I know he would LOL!
At the top of those bridge columns is a neoprene bearing pad...
You are definitely dedicated Sir! Thanks for taking us with you!!
You DO work hard for us! And we're glad you enjoy doing it! :)
Thanks.
You are a good man Mr. Chigg.
If I killed someone I would not give the correct location of where I last saw them - she's probably in Nevada somewhere.
I can just hear the boyfriend watching you saying you’re getting colder getting colder oh hotter getting hotter. Talking about looking for a needle in a haystack this is it.
Columbo. We should all be more like him. Respect Sir. Stay safe.
Likely the guy isn't going to name the parking spot area he would have dumped her. I'd check other ones along the route elsewhere. Also doubt he dug a hole and buried her. Probably night time he just carried them a bit and dumped in an inconspicuous place.
Kudos for looking though Bo.
Should have grabbed that toilet brush they make great back scratchers 🙄
They make pretty good hairbrushes as well.
No 👎
I wouldn’t speculate what happened or who did what to whom, although it’s very sad this young lady is missing and her family must be devastated.
I bicycled through that highway in 2017 and I took a rest at the wash you are filming wow what a coincidence I was there in Feb of 2017.
Get a bed sheet soak in water cut some holes for ventilation and drape it over your bike that will help with heat
Glad you’re getting back out! Be careful for danger noodles! Very dangerous noodles!
Unfortunately, a cadaver dog would be the best tool. My hats off to you sir for your efforts!
Hi Chigg! 🏜️ Another great video! Wow I could comment so much on part 3 but this time I'm just going to say "take more than one bottle of water with you, especially when there's no shade around Beau, sheeesh!"☺️🐢 #chiggarmy
No matter what road even if its in the middle of nowhere always has rubbish its a shame
Little fence to keep tortoises off road. they bump along short fence then hit end and turn around.
That little fence is a tumbleweed catch or a debris catch
If you notice it went from a solid chain link fence down to barbed wire fence.
my thought too
Oh ... I think if he lied about the casino ... that he is lying about the rest stop! Most trucks have GPS trackers these days and I would be more interested in a stop away from the eyes of others.
You should have a dog with you. Any dog would smell decomp
This is an interesting trip so far, thanks for taking us along with you! Under that bridge, if you moved some of those rocks and buried a body then put the rocks back, probably never be found.
I'm think "under rocks " , too.!
Yep
I love these searches you go on. One of these days, I’m sure you will find someone and put a family at ease.
Lying next to the bike reminded me of the scene with Robert Blake in the movie Electra Glide in Blue .
if i was you i would buy the new dji drone and grid it off. looking for disturbance that means bare soil with no plants and a shade darker if observed this should be evident with arial footage or unnatural buildup of brush or rocks unnaturally placed and this you can do easy and less leg work but be sure to study the footage. great vid chig as always
Your a nut!! ❤ love your videos. I hope you can find any clues for her family. Stay safe
You would make really good detective mr chigg thanks for sharing and thanks for serving
Chigg Holmes 🤣🤣
You need a good hiking stick
Agreed.. with a hook on the end of it.
That's for being you beau. Thanks for helping and doing your best to find this woman. I wish more was out there searching. You know so much about alot of stuff that's for sure. I pray she's out there somewhere alive but if not I pray she is found. And I feel if she's out there u will find her b4 anyone else. Maybe mroe people will see this and get out there and search as well. Thanks being so awesome
Everyone drinks when he mentions the Mojave rattler 😂
All the burnt up trash/tires your seeing could've been from a brush fire in that area. Bottles thrown from vehicles land and shatter into pieces and can act like a magnifying glass to start the brush/trash on fire. Happens all the time during the summer months.
I think you are doing a great thing Search For Cara Caudill Cox well done on you for helping her family out. also that is alot of trash.
Just came across your channel, watched a video of an old military base you checked out in the desert. Came to your page to see what else you got going on, and I see you are volunteering a search effort. I have great respect for those like you, and you have another follower.

so tell us, did you buy this ticket?
''The winning ticket was sold at Joe's Service Center in Altadena, Calif., according to the California Lottery. The official Powerball website said that ticket was the sole winner of the top prize.''
the rubber on the bridge pilons is for earthquake protection. shakey shakey
Perfect place to hide a body, in a marked grave !
its sad that the desert is slowly turning into a landfill
Hubcap Annie got her start that way! You are doing a great service Chigg I hope the young woman is found safe, but it is highly unlikely. I would bet money you are the only person that has even looked under that plywood.

You need a pair of Snake Gaiters Chig for when your out there in the desert, in the swamp for Cotton Mouths also.
Those little piles of burned up debris is what is left after a wreak.
Lots of them all along I40
Thought of that too.
Thank You for Your efforts. Pray the lady is found and the family gets an answer.
Praying for your safety out there. Peace
You know that Chigg is packing.
If the truck driver is a fat guy you can probably skip checking anywhere there is a Barbwire fence. Just food for thought thanks for the videos
When do we see the mineshaft? 3 vids in and still not shown it. Was that just a hook to get me to watch?
Lmbo!!! “That’s what she said”!! I love it @Chigg !!
I don’t believe he did anything at the rest area i think that’s just were he reported her missing. To make it appear that they were in middle of the no mans land.
Probably so, but I had to start somewhere with the little info that I have.
Interesting theory. Logical the most intensive search would of course be where last seen.
"supposedly" seen. The family asked me to search that area, so I did so to help alleviate their concerns.
@@aquachigger I completely understand I pray they can find peace
Chigg, with all the exploring you do, how many sets of human remains have you come upon in your day?
He's mentioned in some of his previous videos that he's found a few, but he's fairly tightlipped about it.
In the off chance he was lying about the actual location. There are 3 more rest areas in a 50 / 60 mile radius from Needles. First being closest to Essex would be in Nevada on the 95 highway going to Las Vegas NV just north of CalnevAri between Searchlight. 2nd would be in Arizona Between Kingman and Lake Havasu turn off. 3rd would be south Vidal Junction, really a lot of Truckers use that area to rest, mostly just a vacant town now.
You need a drone, Chig.
Certain hubcaps are worth quite a bit

That plywood look's like it has been there a lot longer then six months, but something else might be buried there.
That's what I said! Man that looks to out of place to be nothing. To me it's a shallow grave. And it was done on purpose 😢😮!
Desert janitor. 😂👍
I would think anything the guy shared was misinformation . He could have stopped 100 miles before or after where he claimed they parted. If he dumped her body .
Watch him every night back a few years.,I'm 61 born in 1961
It's your Golden year
1964. I think Chigg is a 64 baby
Chigg is just a little delirious at the end.
I seen Michael McDowell #34 car hauler go by heading to or coming back from Phoenix raceway
You might like ‘Mad dogs and Englishmen’ by Noel Coward ( because you were out in the midday sun)
That little curved wire fence it called a turtus 🐢 turn around its keeps the turtus off the highway, it sends them the other way , those Mojave green rattler is no joke , lol thanks BigAl California praise Jesus Christ grace grace grace amen 🙏
I would to it’s hot outside looks like Chigg be safe go cool down slowly
Remember last year a Marine had car trouble in Death Valley -- he tried walking to the highway. Made it 2.5 miles. RIP
I drive that section of 40 every month, always wondered whats around and under the bridges. Now i dont have too thanks.. There are trilobites in that area i want to see. Performed one snoop and poop of the area, was too hot still and no shade, no services. Thinking march. I like looking around too. Plastic bags and igloos i found had dogs in them. sad.
YES HE MAKES THEM BLUE JEANS THE CHIGGY COULD MAKE THEM BLUE JEANS TALK.......420
I applaud you for going out of your way to search for this poor woman. Let’s pray we find some answers for her sister and family. And if this man is responsible for her demise, that he gets the justice he deserves!
A Mojave rattler would definitely ruin your day. There are few snakes more venomous in the U.S.
Love your theory about your clothes, lol!
Maybe time to invest in one of those 3-D imaging metal detectors that will show shapes of buried objects and other information.
Referring to the spot where you found those burned tires. Could have been a Necklacing incident. It is an old cartel trick.
Desert freeways are often lined with pieces of recapped big rig tires. They seem to come apart easily maybe because of heat. I wonder if Caltrans piles up the pieces and burn them rather than place them in a dump truck and hauled off.
I now know why you waited to upload these. Can't have them triangulating on you, right??
Surely Adam Stapp, the man she was with, had a cell phone. Where he was might be determined from cell phone tower data.
At 6:20 they build that fence that way so the wind won’t blow all of the trash under the barbed wire fence since the fence changes at that spot.
It'd be great to get a drone with LIDAR up to scan the area. Just don't drop it down a mineshaft!
at 12:07 at that plywood it looks like a rock was placed like a gravestone would be. I wonder if you dug that up what you would find.
Run 🏃🏼♀️ they be chasing you brother 🏴☠️
Who Be Chasing him ?
There was a headstone by the plywood thing you looked under. So there may be bones in the shallow dirt under the plywood.
Looks like the rivers you search in in Maryland.... been shit on a long time.
The small fence ....
Rabbit Trap Chigg...
Useless law enforcement over there, what a pathetic investigation into her disappearance.
Lol yuc a pucs. Last i heard that was from Morey Amsterdam 👍🏻
could always hide in the shade of the bridge and fly your drone to scan the area your in.. safer then that heat. just a suggestion
I get thank you for your service when I wear my chigg hat I have to correct people what it represents
Well, if there were trucks in the rest area at the time she got out, she could have gotten a ride out, in which case, expands the search area to the rest of the country.
mate they are the places you look under the disturbed with the bunt up bit of tyer and stuff to people it looks like nothing but it is disturbed
If anyone with drones could go out there ,and help ,like the police or fbi
Just a thought but if he left her somewhere and is smart he would claim the last area he saw her was an area from where he actually left her. To get people to search in the wrong area.
Time stamp 4:54 tic tack ufo above your head!
I now have no desire to see the Mojave desert.however glad to find this video tonight because I have spent 10 days making election canvassing calls and needed to get far far away from that! ..this poor soul. Like poor Gabby Potito, really terrible life choices out of loneliness led to her end. Very very tragic. I remember when I was young there was that horrible movie looking for mr Goodbar.. Rare outcomes in those days now it seems common. I'm glad I was young and stupid when it was still relatively safe to be young and stupid.
Thank uou for trying to find Cara. He probably threw her in a river.
