Search for Missing Oregon Woman and Her Two Dogs Called Off After Four Days
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Astoria, OR – The search for 61-year-old Susan Lane-Fournier, a woman who went missing while hiking in Oregon’s Salmon-Huckleberry Wilderness, has been officially suspended after four days of intensive efforts. Despite the suspension of the search operation, authorities have clarified that the case remains an active missing persons investigation.

Lane-Fournier, who was hiking with her two large Malinois-mix dogs, was last seen in the Green Canyon Way Trail area near Welches, Oregon. She was reported missing after failing to show up for work, prompting her employer to alert authorities. Deputies found no sign of Lane-Fournier at her home when they went to check on her, and the next day, her white 1992 Ford F-250 truck was located parked along a road near the trailhead.

The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Department led the search, which involved ground teams, helicopters, and canine units. Despite these efforts, the woman and her dogs were not located, and the search was called off Tuesday evening.

Authorities are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding Lane-Fournier’s disappearance. They are seeking information from anyone who may have seen her or has knowledge of her whereabouts in the week leading up to her vanishing. Investigators are particularly interested in any leads from the area around the Green Canyon Way Trail.

Lane-Fournier, who also goes by the name Phoenix, is described as 5-foot-2, weighing 150 pounds, with reddish-brown hair. Her family and friends have been anxiously awaiting news, and the community remains hopeful that more information will surface as the investigation progresses.

The search’s suspension does not mark the end of the investigation, as authorities continue to gather details and work to piece together the timeline of her disappearance. Anyone with information is urged to contact local law enforcement as officials remain committed to finding Lane-Fournier and her two dogs.
