James Randall Morgenson live a life outdoors. From a young age his live and draw to the wildest corners of California’s Sierra Nevada range prepared him for nearly 3 decades as a back country ranger in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks.

He was a legend for younger rangers and his ability to read the landscape and predict how people would respond to the terrain was unlike anyone else in the park system. But in the summer of 1996, Randy himself goes missing. The search for one of their own began and what information was found left the unanswered questions lingering in the dark.
