Volcanic Brown 1931

"Snow has fallen for 16 days in the search area," said the newspapers.
Not only Volcanic Brown went missing that fall of 1931. Oscar Sneve (39) from Mission BC, who "had left on a deer hunting expedition," succumbed on 17 November 1931. The search for Nurse Mary Warburton, who had left Squamish mid-October to hike to Indian Arm and Vancouver was abandoned by the end of November. In 1926, Mary Warburton, hiking from Hope to the Okanagan, got lost and for five weeks survived on berries and roots until she was rescued. This time she was not that lucky. The search for Volcanic Brown was abandoned after Game Warden Stevenson and Forest Ranger McMartin returned having found "no trace of him."
