Father’s Facebook plea reveals troubling timeline and abandoned vehicle

Bren Palmer, the father of Chris Palmer, took to his Facebook account and shared a lengthy post that quickly gained widespread attention as he appealed for help in locating his son. In the post, he explained that Chris and his dog, Zoey, set out on a camping trip to the Smoky Mountains on December 8, noting that Chris was an experienced camper who regularly kept his family informed of his plans.

Bren went on to say in the post that Chris stayed in the Boone Fork area from December 10 to December 27 before calling on December 25 to say he planned to travel to the George Washington National Forest in Virginia, where he intended to camp until January 7. While Chris confirmed through text on January 4 that he was still in the forest and planned to remain another week, and on January 9, he messaged that he was heading to the Monongahela National Forest in West Virginia.

Although the communication was limited due to poor signal, Chris sent a video of the terrain. The family’s concern deepened when, on January 18, they were informed by the Greece County Sheriff’s Department that Chris’s red Ford F-250 had been discovered abandoned on January 10 on a beach near Buxton, North Carolina, at Cape Hatteras National Seashore, which is far from the direction he said he was travelling.
