Jigme Dorji National Park Puns

It’s been more than a decade and no one has still ever heard from Stuart Issac who left for a cross country road trip to Yellowstone National Park in 2010.

Stuart Isaac a native of the Republic of Palau, was living in Burtonsville, Maryland with his family in 2010. A stocky man at 5’8” and 215 lbs, Stuart Issac was not usually an outdoorsman, but on September 6, Stuart decided to pack a bag, write a note to his family and leave for a roadtrip to Yellowstone National Park in his 2009, black Lexus Sedan—with no prior experience with hiking or camping. On September 7, 2010, 32 hours after he left his home in Burtonsville, Maryland, Stuart arrived at Yellowstone National Park.Then, 2 weeks later, he phoned an old friend from high school,on September 24th. Since Matsue lives in Guam, typically the two communicate via email or text. The call was unexpected because of the time change—it was 3:30am EST for Stuart. The call lasted for at least two hours.Two days later on September 26, Stuart parked his 2009 black Lexus IS-250 sedan with a license plate that read BELLEK at Craig Pass, which is approximately eight miles east of Old Faithful Geyser  Yellowstone National Grand Loop Road in Wyoming.

Stuart was discovered missing during a routine night patrol in the Craig Pass area later that night. An officer had discovered Stuart’s abandoned unlocked car with his keys still inside but no other trace of Stuart. Craig Pass is known to have an approximate elevation of 8,362 feet and has a mountain pass located near Continental Drive. There were no hiking trails in this area. A land and air search began immediately but no sign of Stuart.
