Daniel Julius Christensen, 77, was last seen on October 30, 1982, at his family’s cabin on Long Lake, Manitoba. That afternoon at about 2:00 p.m. he went out hunting chickens with the family dog and a 12-gauge shotgun. He was described as 5 feet 11 inches, about 150 pounds, with grey hair and brown eyes, wearing a green hat, brown tweed pants and brown boots.

When he failed to return for dinner the family searched locally and then reported him missing to the Powerview RCMP at 6:45 p.m. on October 31, 1982. Land and air searches continued for several days but found no trace of Daniel or his belongings. On November 6, 1982, the family dog returned to the cabin alone and in good health, but no further clues were ever located and the searches ended without a resolution.

Who in the Long Lake area in 1982 might remember Daniel’s hunting routines or the dog that returned to the cabin?
