Desertpilot Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 (edited) All, Tortuga has been missing for two days in southern Arizona. I will be out looking for him along with other Law Enforcement folks today. If anyone here has had recient contact with him and may think you know where he could be please PM me. I will be using a helicopter to search for him so even if it’s somewhere remote or best guess I can cover the ground pretty quick.

Old Tom Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Oh man, I hope all's well with him. We'll be praying for him and hope you guys get to him before too long. I'd come down and join the search but I'm almost bed ridden right now with back problems. Keep us updated please. Old Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Allison Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Hey Guys, My last contact with Chris was about 2 weeks ago. He normally lets me know if he is heading up this way, Wickenburg, Rich Hill or such. That being said, I believe they are searching around Greaterville and other placer areas around Tucson. I have called several guys around Tucson today to see if they heard from him, all said they haven't. Keep Chris in your prayers that he turns up fine. I don't know all the details if he told any family member or girlfriend where he was heading. Desert Pilot - Any updates on your end?

LowPoint Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Do any of you on this forum that know him have a contact phone number for him??? Have any of you gone detecting with him in the past who may have a phone number to reach him by??? Hey Bill,..or Rob Allison,.. or Chris Gholson>>>>> have any of you sold him a coil, or detector in the past where you may have a record of the sale, which may have his mail address and phone number, or email address?????? There should be "Someone" out there who has communicated with him (PM'D) him in the past who may have gotten his phone number to meet up with him for some reason??????????????

Desertpilot Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) All, Thanks for your support and PM’s. There has been large effort to look for him the past couple of days using multiple government agencies.

Edge Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 What area is being searched for him? If I know the area well, my son and I might head down and look by horseback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisski Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 If you can post details of this ongoing search with law enforcement, such as where the county rescue is meeting, that would be good. If we'd get in there way, let us know that also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertpilot Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share Posted December 23, 2018 I would like to thank everyone for their support and input especially the people who PM’d me and spoke with me on the phone. The information provided was able to aid in reducing the search area. We were able to find Chris but I cannot provide much more information than that at this time. 9 1 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
