Found Deceased Wa - Cornelius "casey" Zippro, 31, Colonial Creek Campground, Rockport, 16 June 2018

[Vail]

His Mom posted that he had his cell phone and wallet with him but there's no cell signal until you get about an hour our of the park by car. She said he never carries cash and there was no bank activity for him since he went missing.

Then how did the images post to instagram?

He could have ran into town and posted while they were there. It’ll still tag his location because it’s entered in manually. Assuming his friend he was with had a car.

Question for those of you familiar with Instagram (I still have a flip phone). Do you have to have a cell signal to take video and post? If so, Casey would have had to have left the park to do so and his Mom said it was a fair drive away to get a signal.

You would not have to have a signal to take a photo or video, that saves to your phone until deleted. You would however have to have signal to upload the content to your Instagram. There is also a live video feed feature on IG, that’s required a strong signal. I hope that helps..

I find it a bit strange that there is not more about Casey in the media. Only because he's not a child or a woman maybe? Must be so frustrating for his family.

One of the photos was identified as the trailhead at Sourdough Mountain. That is a grueling climb in VERY steep terrain. His Mom has returned home according to social media. Heartbreaking.

I just hope that the authorities keep an open mind about his disappearance and that they talked to the "friend" he went camping with very thoroughly.

Camping buddy posted afterward as if nothing happened. Mom said on social media LEO's thought he just "walked away". I found 3 separate mug shots, a 96 hour jail hold for mental health issues, multiple drug and alcohol arrests and more recently criminal charges for failure to comply with the provision of his probation. He lost or quit his job in March. The moderators may delete this but I think it's critical to why he could have gone missing voluntarily. He may just be overwhelmed.

Thanks for sharing this, of course that would explain alot, his buddy's behaviour, the lack of media coverage, but even if true, IMO he would be an endangered missing person with a suicide risk maybe.

According to his mother there has not been any Cell phone or bank activity since before he got missing. And he has been dealing with depressions. I really hope he just took some "time -out".

ETA no bank activity since june 15th

Casey's IG : Casey Zippro (@pnwcasey) • Instagram photos and videos

The most recent post was uploaded to IG the day before Casey was reported missing. It is a video that is clearly (to me) edited and supposedly shows the friend and the black Jeep they travelled in.

This article posted today says he and the friend got into an argument, and the friend went out for a solo hike. First I've heard mention of an argument.

They are doing a great job with the FB page. Trying to keep the focus on getting the word out that Casey is still missing. Trying to discourage people from hounding the "friend" and let Forest Service and LE do their jobs.

Bumping for Casey
I agree with you, Casey's FB group is very decent and determined to get his story out to the people and news stations. Searches are still going on...

Bump. weird case, he was an experienced hiker, I don't think he would have left his backpack behind. Sending love and strength to his family.
