33. Forgotten Cold Case in the Uintas (Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, Utah)


Listen Later

Similar to the infamous disappearance of Everett Reuss, a young man vanished from the High Uintas in Utah while on a job. Lynn Simmons was 25 years old when he went missing in 1940. It's been 84 years and there has never been a trace of him found. His family is still searching for their missing loved one all of these years later. What happened to Lynn Simmons?

Tips:  Summit County Sheriff’s Office 435-615-3500. Cold Case Tip Hotline: 833-DPS-SAFE (833-377-7233)
