Mountain Herder Vincent Perry Missing Near Blacktail Hills
Vincent Perry, a herder for Frank Landon, disappeared after guiding sheep from Sage creek to Rock creek last Thursday. Searchers scoured the hills east of the Blacktail crossing as Perry’s dogs returned without him and tracks were eventually lost in snow. Perry, known as a reliable, thrifty man, may have perished in bitter cold while attempting to reach the camp three miles northeast. Harry Rash is leading a separate search from Dillon with orders to continue until Perry is found.
