Joseph Powell

Joseph Powell is the husband of missing California resident, Sheryl Powell -who was last seen when the couple was camping.



Joseph’s wife disappeared on Friday during their camping trip in the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest in central California. After searching for his wife on his own for more than an hour, he called authorities using a satellite phone to report her as missing.
He told the Sheriff’s Office that both his wife and their dog vanished from the campground while he was re-positioning their vehicle.

Things get weirder because 60-year-old Sheryl is described by her family as an experienced hiker with a good sense of direction.
Joseph who is baffled at her disappearance said he “if she had an injury, if she had fallen, if she had bumped her head we would have found her by now”
Authorities began searching immediately after receiving the notification but have found no clues on her whereabouts. It is reported Sheryl’s family believes she has been abducted and they suspect foul play.
