"Wanderer's last trail found after 75 years After Everett Ruess vanished in Utah's wilds in 1934, relatives tried to retrace his steps. But a few overheard words are what have now led to his bones. By Kevin Vaughan The Denver Post

As the man's eyes wandered across the red-rock country of southeastern Utah, he first saw a weather-beaten saddle jammed in a canyon wall crevice and then, behind it, bleached bones sticking out from the earth — the keys to unlocking one of the West's enduring mysteries.

That discovery, made more than a year ago, came full circle Thursday with the announcement that the bones belong to Everett Ruess, a poet and painter, writer and thinker who vanished near the Four Corners area in 1934." 68.103.71.44 (talk) 03:57, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Information on these events were added to the article but the remains were ultimately found by DNA analysis to not be those of Ruess, and were identified as someone else (information also added by other editors).  General Ization  Talk  05:44, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
