The initial search began with the Green River Bluffs Trail, which begins in the national park's picnic area, on Thursday afternoon. That was when a car registered to Randy Rascoe, a Glasgow native, was found abandoned in the visitor center parking lot.
National park personnel then contacted Rascoe's family and learned he had been traveling and that his family had been looking for him.
Search teams have found no indication Rascoe was anywhere in the park, aside from his vehicle being found in the visitor center parking lot.
The last time Rascoe's family saw him was in mid-May, when his brother, Steven, and sister-in-law, Michelle, came down from Louisville to go fishing with him. Scott Rascoe talked to his brother, Randy, about a week earlier. That was the last time any of us had talked to him, Scott Rascoe said. We know he was off from work then.
On May 20, Steven Rascoe tried to contact Randy Rascoe for two to three days but couldn't reach him. That's when he decided to call his brother's work. He worked for Bowling Green City, the Department of Public Works, and he didn't show back up for work, Scott Rascoe said. He had been on vacation, so they didn't know anything. So, then we filed a missing person's report a few days later after we kept trying to get a hold of his phone, and that was through the Bowling Green Police.
What we can gather, he was in Lexington, in the Georgetown area, on Nov. 2-4. He had the oil changed and he stayed at a Hampton Inn in Georgetown. They said he checked out on Nov. 4 at 7 a.m. After that the last GPS was where his car was found here in the national park, Steven Rascoe said.
The brothers said Randy Rascoe was known to visit the national park. We have no indication that he left, because his vehicle was here and all of his belongings were in the vehicle. He has been traveling since May or June and basically, everything he owned was in the car, said Scott Rascoe. A check of their brother's cell phone revealed that the only calls he made were to parks and to hotels.
It is not known if he is in the Park, or if he is elsewhere.
