"Terror and joy walk the same ridges and coves of the Great Smokies. Flame azalea offers vivid color splashes among the greenery of the forested slopes that reach up to Spence Field. Knife-edged ridges are roan with rhododendron bloom, lovely from a high hill or from a hovering helicopter. A doe pauses beside the Appalachian Trail, west of Spence Field, and looks for a second at approaching hikers before she bounds into the wet green wilderness that swallows her in a twinkling. Joy for the veteran wilderness lover - who knows where he is. Terror for a little boy - like Dennis Martin - lost and hungry." These are the words of Carson Brewer, a journalist, and one of those closely following the search for seven year old Dennis Martin, lost in the wilds of the Great Smoky Mountains over Father’s Day weekend in 1969. It’s a tragic story, one of a little boy who simply became lost in the vast wildlands of Appalachia…but not all who have studied the case agree with that narrative. Incoherent timelines, the presence of elite military units, FBI involvement, and tales of wild men in the undergrowth have contributed to an air of mystery surrounding this case, which some might call the ultimate unsolved disappearance.
