Bones found in rugged Cougar area
COUGAR — Cowlitz County sheriff's deputies went into a rugged area near Cougar today to check what were re- ported to be human bones found by three hunters on Sunday. The sheriff's office reported that the bones were found in an area east of Cin- namon Peak, which is about three and one-half miles north of Cougar, not far from the Skamania County line. The remains were scattered over a large area; the hunters reported. No clothing was found, and deputies said the identity probably would have to be established through examination of the teeth. Hunters who found the bones were Carl Campbell and Charles M. Campbell of Amboy and Glen C. Johnson of Camp- ls. The area being checked is brush and tree-covered land containing lava caves. Although identification of the victim would be only speculation at this time, the area is not far from where James Annis, 16, of Hockinson, disappeared while on a hunting trip in November 1971. Annis apparently was seen for the last time by two hunters southeast of Grass Lake, which is on the Cowlitz- Skamania county line. This is northeast of Cougar and southeast of Cinnamon Peak. Some speculation also has been voiced that the remains might be those of D.B. Cooper, who parachuted from a jet liner with ransom money late last year. The FBI has searched the Lewis River coun- try for some trace of Cooper, but so far has not reported any concrete results.
