On September 7th of 1987, Tom Young closed up shop and with his black lab, Gus, walked into the Rockies and vanished. Keith Reinhard would move into the rental space of Tom's shop just nine-months later, and begin investigating the strange disappearance for his book. On August 7th, 1988 just short of one year of Tom's disappearance, Keith closed up shop and went walking out into the Rockies, never to be seen again.
