But if this was his intent, where are Kenny’s remains? Nothing has ever been found despite all the official and voluntary searches. Suicide - Kenny’s apparent negative state of mind may have given him the thought to end his life and the M-cave story was a perfect excuse. Enjoy your adventures of life and thank you for the kind loving comments sent my way.” Theories on Kenny’s disappearance I am healing from my loss and look forward to new experiences with desert hiking, camping and taking beautiful pictures of our desert. I had many wonderful experience with Kenny and will always remember them and have a place of love in my heart for him and the wonderful things we did together. You would not be able to carry enough water. You would need 2 or 3 days at a time and in the summer, or even late spring, this can not be done because of the heat of our desert. You would be repeating much of the same hike….just getting up the mountain and then be left with not many hours in the day to do the search. A search really can’t be on a one day hike. Bring a GPS and make sure that you have let family or friends know that you are heading out for the hike and where and when you will be returning. Walking sticks are a good idea and not doing a solo hike. Secondly, if any of you do decide to go out into our desert to look for him or the M Cave, be careful and bring enough water and food. First, so that you have more of an understanding who Kenny was and to bring some peace or understanding to the situation. So, he had no intention of filming anything.” He also did not take his video camera with him on this solo hike. It is my feeling he left it behind so that he could not be tracked from the GPS in it. The mine shaft was only about a 4-hour hike from his car.

They did find his cell phone by the mine shaft in the video. They found his car in the area I told them it would be. One helicopter fly over was done and there was no trace of Kenny or any of his camping things. Over 30 search and rescue team members searched three different times on foot. He quit his job a little more than a year before he disappeared…The search for him was started within a couple days of my call.

He battled depression for many years and would not take medication or see a doctor. We wore snake guards, sun protected clothing, used walking sticks, brought enough water and food for the hiking hours and had extra water/food in the car…I want you to know that I do not think Kenny had an accident. We were always careful how we explored them, but Kenny was a bit more daring than I was. We found many abandoned mining towns, usually referred to as “ghost towns” by Nevada hikers. We hiked and camped together all over the Nevada desert…sometimes 9 hours in a day. It was his very, very favorite thing to do. Kenny absolutely loved hiking in the desert. I want to share what I know and feel about what happened, so that you might bring some closure and understanding in your own lives. He has not been found and I feel that he probably will not be found for many, many months, if ever. You are heart felt about the sadness around what has happened with Kenny. So many people are wondering what happened and guessing different things. I had no idea until a friend let me know. “I am the girlfriend that Kenny spoke of in the video. Someone claiming to be Kenny’s girlfriend posted the following comment on his “M Cave Hike” video: The Message from Kenny’s girlfriend Sheryon Pilgrim He also left his video camera behind which he used for his previous M Cave YouTube video but did take his camera. It would have left him little time to search the M Cave had he actually found it again. But Kenny had been known to be reckless in the desert before. It was strange that Kenny decided to do another day hike without overnight camping equipment as he said his previous trips had been long 10-hour hikes over difficult ground. We are having our other crews come in from the search areas.” The cell phone was located on November 22, 2014. It doesn’t mean that he’s down the mine shaft, but we have tracked him as far as we can.

“We found his cell phone close to a very vertical old mine shaft and we can’t find another trail. Red Rock Search & Rescue Commander Dave Cummings told News 3 in Las Vegas. The search for Kenny?Ī substantial search was launched after Kenny's girlfriend, Sheryon, reported him missing. On November 10, 2014, Kenny told his girlfriend Sheryon Pilgrim that he was leaving to find the cave on a solo hike. Then Kenny told the YouTubers he was going on a third trip to the area to find the mythical M-Cave and invited others to join him, but no one offered to accompany him.
