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.
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!
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
Been watching you since you graced my screen here in the UK doing River Hunters! I'm a keen metal dectectorist and magnet Fisher. Loved your videos on Kenny V too. So kind of you to go looking for this lady. Much respect from the UK. X
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 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!😅
Love your channel. You are on my bucket list to just sit down and chat for a while. You have a very good soul. I got connected with you first time I stumble on your channel after getting my first Garrett Ace 400. Stay safe my brother.
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 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 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
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!
It’s awesome you are doing this. It’s great that people help search for these people. Recently seems to be a few men killing their wives girlfriends and such. It’s upsetting to see. It’s good to see channels helping search. I hope you carry a satellite phone with you when you are in areas that cell phones don’t work. Just as a safety precaution. I used to rent one when I traveled to a mountain area that had no cell service. Just to be safe. You probably can buy them now cheaper than it was for me to rent one LOL.
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
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.
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
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.
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 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.
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.
Hi Chig! Unlike the beautiful area where you were searching for Kenny last year, this place just seems like the pits of deserts or just utterly horribe! A far cry from your verdant Virginia!
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
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.
Thank you Chigg.for your effort with this, it must have been exhausting. I'm from California myself and I've never understood why people view our deserts like some sort of trash dumping ground?! Would these people do the same thing in a lush Redwood forest? Just because it has a different type of topography doesn't mean it is any less of a wilderness with a very delicate ecosystem and unique wildlife and plants that exist no where else in the world. So disrespectful and lazy of people just to toss things out their window, really disgusting and turning our once beautiful deserts into garbage dumps!
No deer out in the Mojave desert. The only large foraging animal in that area would be a wild Burro (donkey) but they would more likely be in the hills and canyons where they'd be closer to vegetation or a water source and away from people.
It could be a dual purpose thing. I worked at restaurant in AZ and tumbleweeds would gather in the ditch between the resturant and the interstate off ramp. Our maintenance guys would take several hours every once in awhile to burn them. Those things can be huge! The size of a sedan!
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.
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 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.
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.''

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.
You are definitely dedicated Sir! Thanks for taking us with you!!
Just came across your channel, watched a video of an old military base you checked out in the desert.

(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.....
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.

You DO work hard for us! And we're glad you enjoy doing it! :)
Thanks.
You're not one to give up easily. You did more than most. It's just one of the reasons we admire you, Beau.
Been watching you since you graced my screen here in the UK doing River Hunters! I'm a keen metal dectectorist and magnet Fisher. Loved your videos on Kenny V too. So kind of you to go looking for this lady. Much respect from the UK. X
At the top of those bridge columns is a neoprene bearing pad...
Love these adventures, it's a sad story but these videos are the only way I will ever see those parts of the country. Thank you for the great content!
That's what she said 🤣🤣😄 it's always funnier from you because I'm not expecting it.
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.
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! 😆
Thank You for Your efforts. Pray the lady is found and the family gets an answer.
Love your channel. You are on my bucket list to just sit down and chat for a while. You have a very good soul. I got connected with you first time I stumble on your channel after getting my first Garrett Ace 400. Stay safe my brother.

Unfortunately, a cadaver dog would be the best tool. My hats off to you sir for your efforts!
Glad you’re getting back out! Be careful for danger noodles! Very dangerous noodles!
Thank you for taking us along on another adventure 👍
Columbo. We should all be more like him. Respect Sir. Stay safe.
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!
You are a good man Mr. Chigg.
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
Lying next to the bike reminded me of the scene with Robert Blake in the movie Electra Glide in Blue .
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
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.
Thanx Beau for your dedication
This woman weighed 170 pounds, Thats a lot of dead weight to be carrying very far.
Columbo was my favorite TV show growing up as a kid. I'd catch it over the summer over at grandma's place. :)
You would make really good detective mr chigg thanks for sharing and thanks for serving
Chigg Holmes 🤣🤣
Your a nut!! ❤ love your videos. I hope you can find any clues for her family. Stay safe
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!
Thanks!
Wow, thanks so much!
No matter what road even if its in the middle of nowhere always has rubbish its a shame
It’s awesome you are doing this. It’s great that people help search for these people. Recently seems to be a few men killing their wives girlfriends and such. It’s upsetting to see.

Praying for your safety out there. Peace
You know that Chigg is packing.
Everyone drinks when he mentions the Mojave rattler 😂
Chigg is just a little delirious at the end.
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
Lmbo!!! “That’s what she said”!! I love it @Chigg !!
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.
Little fence to keep tortoises off road. they bump along short fence then hit end and turn around.
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.
That was pretty eerie seeing a placed stone on its side next to the plywood you lifted up. It looked almost like a grave marker.
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.
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.
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.

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 😢😮!
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.
There was a headstone by the plywood thing you looked under. So there may be bones in the shallow dirt under the plywood.
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.
Thank you Chigg.for your effort with this, it must have been exhausting. I'm from California myself and I've never understood why people view our deserts like some sort of trash dumping ground?! Would these people do the same thing in a lush Redwood forest?

So disrespectful and lazy of people just to toss things out their window, really disgusting and turning our once beautiful deserts into garbage dumps!
@6:06, it looks like an antler trap. You put corn in the middle, and deer with loose antlers lose them, on site.
No deer out in the Mojave desert. The only large foraging animal in that area would be a wild Burro (donkey) but they would more likely be in the hills and canyons where they'd be closer to vegetation or a water source and away from people.
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.
6:10 - I think the fence would be shaped like that as a means of catching tumbleweeds.
I believe it's for the desert tortoises.
It could be a dual purpose thing. I worked at restaurant in AZ and tumbleweeds would gather in the ditch between the resturant and the interstate off ramp. Our maintenance guys would take several hours every once in awhile to burn them. Those things can be huge! The size of a sedan!
Loving this adventure, brilliant, peace ✌️
its sad that the desert is slowly turning into a landfill
If I killed someone I would not give the correct location of where I last saw them - she's probably in Nevada somewhere.
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.
Thank you so much for looking for this lady . Please take care n watch those rattlers.
so kind of you
Your a good man for looking for her. So sad what happened to that poor woman.
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.
Love your theory about your clothes, lol!
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.
the rubber on the bridge pilons is for earthquake protection. shakey shakey
Good afternoon from Southeast South Dakota
'Evening.
Remember last year a Marine had car trouble in Death Valley -- he tried walking to the highway. Made it 2.5 miles. RIP
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
what could be left after all this time in the desert? good work and thank you from England.
Bones
Good evening Chigg happy to see you again
Hello there!
You have eagle eyes. You did a nice thing for a stranger.
What side arm do you carry?
CZ-52 out there. I bought a bunch of them cheap back in the day. Figured if I had to lose one, it wouldn't hurt so bad. ;)
The weird fence is a wildlife fence it helps keep them from crossing the road.
Certain hubcaps are worth quite a bit
Desert janitor. 😂👍
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
I have pistola...do you have pistola???? Fun yet sketchy!
Out in west Texas we used to fly at 5, 6 hundred feet. You can see bones easily, they are so white.
Why hasn't there been any press on this case
Should have grabbed that toilet brush they make great back scratchers 🙄
They make pretty good hairbrushes as well.
No 👎
Perfect place to hide a body, in a marked grave !
When do we see the mineshaft? 3 vids in and still not shown it. Was that just a hook to get me to watch?
You need a good hiking stick
Agreed.. with a hook on the end of it.
Thank you for sharing with us 👊🤩👍
that little fence was to help catch the trash as it blows down
That roadside trash seems really sad. We really have lost respect for the earth.
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.''
5:30...bail on the Chig?....I dont understand these words 😁 👍
I would to it’s hot outside looks like Chigg be safe go cool down slowly
