## Resource

It was supposed to be a quiet morning in the mountains- just a father and son, a morning fishing session, and the promise of one last summer memory before school started. But sometime after 8 a.m., a twelve-year-old boy turned to walk back to camp... and was never seen again. This is the disappearance of Garrett Bardsley.
