Ronald and a passenger were riding a snow machine and are believed to have gone into an open lead of water. A single set of snow machine tracks were observed to terminate in open water at the confluence of the Andreafski and Yukon Rivers between St. Mary's and Pitkas Point. No tracks of any type came out of the water. Searches of the area didn't locate Ronald. The passenger was located deceased and positively identified on 07/31/2010.
