Jared Michael Negrete (born September 11, 1978)^[1] is a missing person who was last seen on July 19, 1991.^[2]

Disappearance

Negrete had gone with his fellow Boy Scouts on a camping trip, which was the first trip that he would spend overnight. On the trail towards the summit of Mount San Gorgonio, Negrete had trouble keeping up with the other scouts due to lack of experience with hiking. The scout troop then decided to hike ahead of Negrete at a faster pace, leaving him behind. He then got separated from his group, and it was reported by other hikers and witnesses on the trail that he was seen taking shortcuts in the switchback sections, which led to speculations that he possibly fell down the mountainside or had taken the wrong trail and got lost. It was reported that the scout troop leader had interacted with hikers that expressed concern for Negrete, which he then stated that he would check on his scout on the way back down the summit with the rest of the troop. ^[3] Negrete was last seen wearing green Boy Scout pants, with a tan-colored T-shirt (possibly a Boy Scout-style T-shirt), and with black high-top tennis shoes.^[4]

Investigation and aftermath

When a search was conducted to find Negrete, twelve snapshots were developed from a camera that was discovered that may have belonged to him.^[5] Most pictures on the filmstrip depicted the surrounding landscape, while the last image was a close-up of Jared's face. Only his eyes and nose were visible in the photograph. The 19-day search combed the area of the 11,500-foot Mt. San Gorgonio. Shoe prints were found at about 10,000 feet matching those of Negrete.^[6] Also found was his backpack, as well as some beef jerky, candy wrappers and a camera, but Negrete himself could not be located.^[7]
