I do not own the music or photos that make up my videos. For educational purposes only.
I can't even imagine loosing a loved one in this manner....My heart goes out to the families of the missing. I hope they find closure....Thanks for sharing.
That music that plays at the end of each volume with the missing people's photos, always gets to me, it makes me want to cry.....your doing a wonderful job Rusty
Update: It has come to my attention that Oregon hiker Tim Reed was found deceased inside the Big Bend National Park where he was reported missing on January 23. His body was found in a remote area of the park miles away from the trail head on Feb. 1, and like too many other cases, it appears he died from an accidental fall. My condolences to those affected by the tragedy and a big thank you to all those involved in the search effort.
People in excellent physical, mental condition, with great hiking skills, people who knew what they were doing went missing, no trace of them? Nobody could convince me all these disappearances were accidents. In my opinion there is SOMETHING taking people hiking the wilderness, targeting some of them, and vanish them forever. Very scary. Great video
breadandcircus1 People train to climb Everest - they’re physically and mentally fit. Yet the mountain still claims it’s toll.
Mother Nature is a relentless lass.
Most of the missing people were not climbing a mountain, they were on an easy trail, many were familiar with that trail where they disappeared from. It's not Nature, I think this is something more sinister, supernatural
I never was that thrilled with living in the woods and walking around in the woods and this channel has encouraged me to stay home and enjoy my backyard. :)
yelloworangered Don't watch the one where a paramedic in Colorado had friends over to his apartment. When they left helped his girlfriend clean up, said he was going to stay out for awhile, disappeared forever. His apartment complex was near some national forest so Rusty included it in one of his posts. There's a bunch where kids or teens and even a few adults disappeared from their yards, some fenced, some not, but all of the homes were in isolated areas. Don't know if yours is.
Thanks for the comment. Now I know never to LIVE near a National Park! :)
Greetings from Norway! Finally a new episode. I love your show Rusty. The cases get me wondering about what's going on in these places. Really strange indeed.
Man! I'm getting to the point I don't even want to go camping, fishing, hunting, exploring the woods! oh! and Bigfoot!
Jeff Williams I was thinking, “crap, has Bigfoot developed a taste for human flesh!?”
Rusty, thanks for this interesting information on NP guests disappearing. I have, over the last several days watched every single one of your videos. I am a big fan of our national parks, but I have to admit that learning about these mysterious disappearances is unsettling to me. I was recently in the vicinity of Rocky Mountain NP and was tempted to spend a couple of days hiking local trails (before knowing anything about your videos). On reflection, I decided hiking solo without adequate gear, knowledge of the trail system, and my age (72) might not be the wisest thing for me to do. As a professional geographer, I would never start off on a hiking trail without a map. It just scares me a tad that so many people aimlessly, it seems, wander off and are never seen or heard from again. Great servie. Thanks.
There are places I've been that are extremely creepy: Crater Lake, Oregon Caves, and a cave system in South China on the Li River. At each place, I had the overwhelming sense of being stalked, not just observed. By what? I don't know. Avoid caves, folks. Something lives in such places, and never go alone!
Mr. Twain check Missing 411 books excellent! Also Sasquatch Chronicles, you may not believe in Bigfoot they are real. I just heard a podcast about how a gentleman and some friends went into a cave and ran all the way back to the park interest because they saw a 10 or 15 ft hairy man. It makes sense because if you were reserved pretty much that's probably what's going on is the Bigfoot living in the caves. Don't believe me just do the research! Have a blessed day!
Yes I have all Dave Paulides' books, thank you Poshlady43. He knows more than anyone about this.
Rusty you have found your niche in life or at least one of them. very good I enjoy the way you portray these people missing. I hope the families find their missing soon.
I live right by Yosemite makes me sad all these people go missing and I never hear about it on the news I loved going there but now I never do I’ve even heard cases of people going missing together so even if you’re with people something can happen
The visuals in your videos are always excellent. One of my favorite channels. Thanks!
Man, your videos are awesome.. simple to the point yet creepy...
crazy that at least 2 people already dissapeared this year. It seems like the pace among the disaperences is increasing :( Hope that they are found and its false alarm. Again great episode Rusty!
All the counties surrounding Edmondson county Kentucky (by Mammoth Cave) has a disappearance rate 17 times higher than similar sized counties in the US. You can get a basic, no frills handgun for less than $300 these days people. If you need help shopping ask me. Stay safe people. God Bless!
breadandcircus1 David Paulides doesn't seem to think so.
Optimus Prine I live in KY, but not near mammoth cave. That's so creepy that there are so many disappearances there. so creepy
Thank you Rusty keep it up we are all watching & wondering..
In hindsight I hope noone else goes missing
Sadly it never ever ends, when will the US or Canadian Govt's do more to find out where these people are or went ?
Thank you Rusty for keeping everyone informed of the hazards of the wilds. As an Eagle Scout we are trained to expect the unexpected but their is no preparation for what's going on in these cases but the public has the right to know...
The end bit is very emotional, just imagining of it was one of my loved ones, and all them unanswered questions n scenarios you must go through in your head to try answer them yourself. The thing with never finding missing people is that hope never goes, that they might just one day return, even thou it’s near impossible, without a confirmation of a death, it’s always there. Awful awful thing to go through. So sad
Hey Rusty if you and David Paulides combined your research fairly then this phenomena will double or triple in size causing the public to finally react. Maybe then for those of us who want to expose the truth as a service to humanity will finally let the people hear it as Big public News worldwide and really happening. Xx
Columbia river gorge is a beautiful place. I live about 30 minutes from there and visit frequently, especially in the summer. There are some great waterfall pools. I've never gone alone though. Always with family. And id never go alone.
I've been to Yosemite once. A few years ago, before moving to the NW. There's always so many people there, I don't know how anyone goes missing without someone seeing something.
David Paulides was correct I believe. Carry a GPS module and a handgun. I believe more people would come out alive. Love the video. Thanks Rusty! Perfect end of a bad week!
Yes it is an interesting phenomenon, if you are carrying a GPS and a handgun, you are less likely to disappear however hunters with rifles even if they have a GPS are still disappearing. Strange that it is handguns.
Very sad all together, my prayers goes to the families. Thank you Rusty, take care.
That Uinta place in Utah is a weird place too, I believe Skinwalker ranch is out there somewhere, and their was a book written in the early 70s called The Utah UFO Display: A Biologist's report by Frank B. Salisbury. So some weird stuff has been documented there. Just stay outta there.
Love this channel - so very sad for all the missing people's families... to never know 😢
The kid ones really get me. If my kid disappeared in a forest , I would not be able to stop looking. I'd live there & I'd be looking everyday , hurts my heart to even think about it... and hardly any news coverage about these people and children. I'd be livid 😡
def makes one wonder what's really going on 😓
I think this is the first compilation, I've watched, that have Black people featured. Interesting. So sad about these people disappearing and, ultimately, dying alone, scared, hungry and cold. God bless their souls.
Stay. the. F. out. of. Yosemite.
As always Rusty, you’ve outdone yourself! Thank you for creating such informative videos - they are truly appreciated😌🌈👍🏽⭐️
"Winter is in full swing" I knew that phrase was coming. Great videos brother
Even if someone was wearing bright colored clothing when they vanish, that clothing might be removed by the missing person or anyone else they might encounter while missing. I've heard David Paulides say that people who wear bright clothing might be more likely to go missing. Thanks for the video, Rusty. Love your narration.
Another great video, Rusty! Greetings from Brazil! We too have our share of strange disappearances, but our National Parks have so little personnel, that most go unnoticed and undocumented.
Gulkave No national park personnel discover these people missing, so high or low numbers don't matter. They might notice a car, which on inspection, has an expired permit and maybe check to see if the owner listed a home number or contact person, It's usually other members of a group or a family member who can't make contact with someone who calls in to park personnel and reports them missing. At that point search and rescue teams are notified and a search is started. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but from what I've read almost as many people disappear in your cities as our forests. We also have many people in our cities who disappear. If there were witnesses to an abduction or something like that the police have something to work with, but frequently, not. The difference is that in a densely populated area someone usually stumbles on a body and then the person isn't a disappearance anymore. That would be a good research topic. How many people disappear and aren't found from a settled area like a town or city compared to the number in forests or parks.
Makes you want to entertain the idea that some of these disappearances have to do with the supernatural....It's very strange and weird...
Great stories, I pray for the families.
I know we can't live our lives in fear, but I wouldn't go to a area known for missing people.
People can go missing ANYWHERE! (Insert scary music) There are a number of weird city disappearances that are similar to the national park cases. The only thing you can do is carry a personal locating transponder if you go out in the wilderness and always travel in pairs. Be safe, Janice!
Conspiracy Queen your right ,people go missing every day from different locations....
Thank you so much Rusty!!!! Love your videos & information!
It's sad you'll never be out of material for these videos. The families/friends just want to know what happened to their loved one. It's worse not knowing.
Your voice adds to the eerie facts surrounding so many cases.
Thank you for another great video, Mr. West. I've been watching these videos for a while now, and I remembered on one of the first videos I commented on, someone asked me what I thought was going on. After watching your videos, and listening to a number of interviews with David Paulides, I have to say my personal thoughts and theories regarding these cases has really evolved. Some of the causes I was sure about before, I now know that even if I was right, and that it was a factor, it was only one factor. There are multiple things going down here. Some are mundane, some might be absurd, and we might not be able to truly declare 'yes, this is a certain factor in the case' for a very long time. In the meantime, when you go to a national park, carry a GPS transponder, Mr. Paulides has said several times that only one person has ever gone missing who activated a transponder. Mr. Paulides also says he carries a firearm, a compass and a sattelite phone. These things vary in price, but any and all could save your life out there, and/or help search and rescue find you. Don't go unprepared, be mindful of your companions, and be careful out there.
YOSEMITE🤢😱😰😵😵😵NOW THIS PARK IS THE ULTIMATE CREEPY!!
Always great to seeing another post from you man. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Rusty, love the music. Take Care
CAN WE PLEASE GET THIS MAN TO 100K? #rustywest
Always look forward to your videos, I watch all videos frequently. Such a soothing voice .Your the best . Stay well and see you next time, stay safe, healthy and be happy.Thank you.
Great job Rusty, keep them coming! Love waking up to this and my morning coffee on Saturday am!
Love your videos Rusty, simple and to the point ! Praying for the families, and missing.
One of the best vid series around. Thanks Rusty West....
Yes!!! Another Rusty West video! ❤️ 😞 But sad for missing people and their families.
I love your voice and content Rusty West. God Bless!
Not going to any of these parks, regardless of how beautiful!
Thanks Rusty another great video! ♡♡♡
Four new cases already, crazy. Love the new music. Suits the mood perfectly
I believe Dikran Knadjian was a victim of serial killer Randy Kraft. There is an unsolved entry on Kraft's scorecard that reads "England". An Armenian national, Knadjian spoke with a heavy British accent.
So glad I don't have "outdoor lover" in my DNA. Couch potato proud✊🙌
Same here. I like to read about conspiracies, I don't wanna BECOME one! Fortunately, not many people vanish from their computer desks, so I think we are safe. Who says being lazy is bad for you? LMFAO!
HAHAHA ! Thanks for making me laugh :)
i waited till the morning to watch this cuz i didn't wanna be scared all night lol
Hooray, another Rusty post!!! I have a question if you have time to answer. It seems every disappearance is of a lone person, whether they went out alone or chose to separate from their partner or group. Are there any cases, other than the couple in Joshua Tree, where two or more people disappeared at the same time, and if so, can you include them? Also can you give us your email again? You asked for personal stories a bit ago and I have one from my youth that I still think about frequently which was eerie, unexpected, and frightening, and which has never been explained I would like to share with you.
yay!! thanks Rusty! I'm always excited to see a new video from you! hope you had a great Christmas and a happy new year!!!
I really enjoy the pictures that go along with these videos. And music out standing.
once again a great(and sad) video; may the Most High cover us with His mercy, and forgive us our shortcomings...rest easy
I love hiking. Who the hell go hiking alone? I always go hiking in groups. More fun when you have friends,family,or co-workers with you.
LaoSoftware my neighbor goes alone all of the time. Like deep hiking. Stupidest thing ever.
Another great episode Rusty!!
RUclips's BEST Channel!!!
Regarding the Rico Harris missing person case, it appears as if the Cache Creek Campground where he disappeared has now been permanently closed. Several others have gone missing there as well and now the area is closed? Does anybody else find that to be odd?
Yep, I'm betting the NPS knows far more than they're saying...!
Check out the Cryptid Brothers channel for more information on these closed down parks and campgrounds.
Serial killer!?!?!?
Mark Pinther that's the plan one easy way to keep us out
I love camping, but every time I go I remember videos like this, and it can creep me out at night. even if it's not allowed, I carry protection with me, not sure what's out there, but I'll go down fighting it. P.S. feel bad especially for the kids😢
So many already. Thanks for sharing‼️
Started my 2.5 week solo hike Thursday. Hiking the ouachita trail east bound. 223 miles should finish around Feb 10th. I have signal up on this mountain to watch this video tonight!
Good luck!
☀︎⍲⎵⍲💚
Tim- just be careful !
Great video. I still love the original score the best
Good to see you back, Rusty! Your fans missed you...what for a few week? Love your videos.
Thanks for posting . As usual it's a great video. And I loved the nice long piece of Music at the end.
Rusty, i love you and your work. You are awesome man! :D
Be smart. Don’t go alone and leave evidence that you’ve passed through the area
Oh wow another in bright colors. David P. Speaks on the bright colors.
People wearing bright colours?
Thank you for another amazing video Rusty! I stumbled upon your channel a month or so ago and now am always looking forward to the next update
me too!!
Love your wirk Randy, so respectful. Thank you
Arch Angel rusty not randy lol
The worst thing about the disappearance of Vadim is the complete idiocy of the local sheriffs. They used some drones and there were some volunteer kayakers. But we have a volunteer, established, and highly competent search and rescue that seems to never have been called. Just seems like the sheriffs wanted to play with their drones and play hero instead of call for the help of the experts who were better trained and could have done more than a couple drones could have. All they did was used their drones up and down the river. There are many game trails as well as hiking trails close to that area. Plus that area is an old mining area. So there are many directions he could have wandered off. The fact that clothes were found, it sounds like he got wet and was getting hypothermia. Had the sheriff's department not been so incompetent more progress and possibly a rescue could have been possible.
Something is wrong but what.
Dawn Piper yes indeed something is wrong the thing we lived in for all of our existence has been made alien to us in the last hundred years people have no idea how to conduct themselves in the forest they think they're City mindset will work out there I live and work in the forest and most people I see in hiking and public areas have no business setting foot in the wilderness it's a miracle more than Aren't Dead
Watch out for the Grey's
Thanks i've been watching old one's.
Thanks Rusty ! Yes we always think twice now of what is actually in these forests !
These are excellent video's, both informative and respectful. I would like to see a video about disappearances and other events at places with sinister names. These seem to pop up fairly frequently, such as Satan's Lake, Devil's Peak, and so forth. Thank you.
As always thank you Rusty
Mr. West,
I have been following your work ever since I first discovered one of your wonderful but tragic videos. Your skill, poise, talent and respect in which you treat each missing person is a blessing and expertly done. You have a very "down to earth" approach yet seem to be a great researcher and thoughtful presenter and host. If you and David Paulides collaborated on a project, I would pay good money to see that. I don't have any missing persons in my life. But I firmly believe that your videos help give light to a relatively epidemic of evil that we have in the world we live. These are nothing but acts of cowardice and inherent cruelty. It's unfortunate many are not found. I know that infrared cameras are often used with little to no results when looking for a missing persons. I do not known if it has been invented yet, but what about something like an ultraviolet camera. A much better understand of where missing people are often found might help get more people found. I don't know. God bless to you Mr. West, what you are doing is a good work. Keep it up. Your videos always break my heart every time I watch them.
Great stuff as always !
Your channel helps us remember the lost and hopefully unravel these mysterious disappearances, you do more by putting out these videos than the NPS do all together ;))
Another great video,Randy and the audio volume is much improved.
I read about Mammoth Caves and they are vast with twists and turns and drop offs. Nobody should ever go in them without experience and other people with them, especially if you go off the touring track.
Great job Rusty . Thank you for the videos.
I mean what is going on???? Some of these people get lost and are never found. However, the majority are just strange especially the ones that vanish almost in front of you. I believe that whatever it is, cannot be seen. Seems to be the only explanation that makes sense to me...
Hey RUSTY CHECK MISSING PEOPLE ON MT. BAKER WASHINGTON !!!! ALoT of people go missing up there;;!!!!!!
+Jan Mayo The Bennigton in VT still holds top rank though. Although, the disappearances aren't the ONLY creepy thing there. Ghosts, hitchhikers, mists. There's an entire book dedicated to stories of Bennington.
I couldn't find Big Bend Ranch State park in Colorado. When I Google earthed it, Big Bend Ranch in Texas kept coming up..Sad content, but well done as usual Rusty!!
Big Bend Ranch State Park is in Texas, not Clorado:
bigbendnow.com/2018/01/oregon-man-missing-at-big-bend-ranch-state-park/
Thanx Rusty. I hope we have answers soon.... meanwhile, never go " by your lonesome"!!!
I’ve been waiting on a new one!
Glock29 EDC: indeed! Me too!
Getting notified is like Christmas all over again friggin love these vids!
Thanks rusty we love ypu
Y’all need to do some missing people stories from the Natchez Trace. People go missing from there a lot
Wow Rusty, its so trippy that these people keep dropping off the map,....I keep picturing sinkhole type endless holes.
Thank you for everything you do Rusty. x o It means a lot to the families.
GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO AS ALWAYS 🤗🥇🙏GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL THESE POOR PEOPLE AND THEIR FAMILIES.THIS MAKES PEOPLE OPEN THEIR EYES.THANKS
Imagine if all missing people were inside the tree bark and people just walked past them not knowing they were in there
Thumbs up, Rusty! I always look forward to your videos. Hope you are having a great new year and thank you for another awesomely terrifying video! YOU RULE!
I like this music a lot better! Good job Rusty
Thanks Rusty! Staybafe out there!
Thanks for sharing another good video, I do believe that in some of these missing person cases, may have ended up being food for the Sasquatch. Besides the wildlife there mountain lions and other predators. It's not safe to travel alone in the wilderness, National and State Parks especially.
