On Thursday, the National Park Service released a new surveillance image of the truck from January 9 that shows a blue and white kayak in the bed.

The service said that the kayak, along with Palmer and his German Shepard, Zoey, were nowhere to be seen when they found the empty vehicle.

Pings from Palmer’s phone also show it was near Avon on January 10, and near Cape Point on the January 11, which are both in Outer Banks.

Now, they believe Palmer could still be near where his truck was discovered, which was stuck on the beach at Cape Hatteras National Seashore.

It’s been weeks since Palmer’s family has heard from him, with his heartbroken father Bren Palmer saying they hadn’t talked since January 9.

The adventurer was in the midst of a road trip through National Parks in the Southeast, having cruised through Tennessee and Virginia before stopping by the North Carolina beaches.

In an emotional Facebook post, Bren said he was shocked to learn of the truck’s location, as his son had just told him he was heading to Monongahela National Forest in West Virginia.
