one of my former professors, craig arnold, has recently gone missing. he was hiking a volcano in japan early this week (monday). he left his hotel in the morning, but then that night, didn't come back. as this is the only hotel on a very small (15k) island, the hotel called the police.
the short of it is that a search with dogs, US helicopters, people on foot, etc has been underway for four-going-on-five days now (which is not a good sign.) pray for craig, if you can (& his 14 year old son robyn, who lives with him--but who didn't go with craig on the trip.)
they found his footsteps partway up the mountain, but then they stop. it's a heavily wooded mountain, but the trails are fairly easy to follow. rescuers are hoping that craig got disoriented, or broke something (leg, etc.) and is just off one of the trails, waiting for help. but at this point, no one knows if this is the case--and 4 days is a long time to be lost in the woods.
