Quick Recap
Dylan flew in to Durango, Co airport Nov 19 to visit his father for Thanksgiving and was picked up by his father(verified by cameras). They stopped at a local Walmart ( verified by cameras) and McDonalds, then headed to his fathers house. The last cell communication from Dylan was sent about 9:30 p.m. that night. His father said he seen Dylan that next morning about 7:30 a.m. when his father went to run out for a few hours, when he returned Dylan was not at his house. A few hours went by before his dad got concerned after attempting to contact Dylan on his phone. His father then went to a friend of Dylan's to see if he had seen or heard from Dylan, Dylan was supposed to meet up with that friend that morning, but the friend had not heard from Dylan that morning. At this point is when His father went to law enforcement to report he couldn't find Dylan.

Search so far
Law enforcement began searching quickly, searching the area over the first few days search dogs hit on a scent near the lake. Dive teams were brought in and boats with sonar equipment also. The search on the lake turned up nothing. 100s of volunteers turned out to search the roadways buildings in the area the F.B.I and C.B.I was also involved. No clues were found that helped determined where Dylan was.
At this point things started to get quiet as far as new information goes, many efforts to raise awareness were made like going on the Dr. Phil show and Nancy Grace ran the story a couple times, vigils were held for his birthday Feb 6th, but no new clues turned up.We have been in contact with many Physics and their information turned out to not be helpful, we also have private investigators that looked into the case still nothing new was found.
Newest Information
The family had another K9 search team come to the area recently to go over the area again. Two of their dogs hit in the same area of the lake the original dogs hit at, but the lake was frozen at this point. So as of right now we have a dive team ready to go back into the lake once we can get boats on the water again. This dive team is very well equipped and will come when the lake is ready and they can get to the area. This team has volunteered to come but like anything its very expensive to travel and to get lodging, so we are trying to continue to raise funds to help support the dive team.
We are hoping that we can clear the lake as a possibility but closure for the family is a possibility.
As the lake has been on all of our minds we must push the awareness and continue to keep looking as the lake has been searched once and nothing was found.
Local Colorado news and New Mexico news has kept up on coverage but national mainstream news has not been helpful so we really need everyone on social media sites like FaceBook and Twitter to keep helping us to spread the flyers and information that Dylan is still missing and we still need help to find him.
Donations
As the search goes on more and more the expenses have fallen on us to pay, so we really need more help to keep raising the reward and keeping the website up and any new places that might need searched we need funds ready to go Please visit our website www.finddylan.com for information on making a donation.

Update via La Plata County Sheriff’s Office
News Release: LPCSO Update on Investigation of Disappearance of Dylan Redwine
Date/ Time: 4:00PM MST Tuesday March 19th 2013
Source: Dan Bender, PIO La Plata County Sheriff’s Office Durango, Colorado
Narrative:
According to the La Plata County Sheriff’s Office, on November 19, 2012, the day Dylan Redwine was reported missing, there was a reported sighting by a local postal worker indicating that Dylan was seen walking with another boy in Vallecito at about 2:00 PM. Investigators have identified and contacted these two young people and determined they have no connection to Dylan’s disappearance. Investigators continue to investigate reported sightings in Colorado and other states, but to date, none have been confirmed.
In February, investigators asked the public to help identify a man who was seen in Vallecito looking for gas on the day Dylan was reported missing. Investigators were able to identify and contact the man. He has not been linked to Dylan’s disappearance and was in the area on legitimate business.
Dylan was reported missing on Monday, November 19, 2012, when Dylan’s mother, Elaine Redwine, contacted the La Plata County Sheriff’s Office at about 5:30 PM to report that Dylan was missing from his father’s home in Vallecito. Mark Redwine, Dylan’s father, had previously contacted the Bayfield Marshal’s Office on the 19th attempting to learn if they had seen Dylan, and he then contacted Elaine asking if she had heard from Dylan.
Elaine Redwine, Dylan’s brother Cory Redwine, and Elaine’s fiancé Mike Hall remained in the Colorado Springs area when Dylan flew to Durango by himself on November 18th for a Court ordered visit with Mark Redwine for the Thanksgiving holiday. Elaine, Cory and Mike were still in the Colorado Springs area when Mark sent the message to Elaine the following afternoon asking about Dylan. Shortly after receiving Mark’s inquiry, Elaine, Cory and Mike traveled to Durango.
Investigators learned that Mark met Dylan at the Durango-La Plata County Airport at about 5:45 PM Sunday, November 18th. Investigators confirmed that Dylan arrived at Mark’s home on Sunday at about 8:00 PM after stops at Wal-Mart and McDonald’s in Durango.

[PAGE TWO] LPCSO Update on Investigation of Disappearance of Dylan Redwine
Investigators learned that Mark has said he last saw Dylan at around 7:30 AM Monday, November 19, 2012 at his home in Vallecito when Mark left for Durango to run errands. Investigators have also learned Mark returned home at about 11:30 AM and discovered that Dylan was gone.
Mark’s and Dylan’s interactions and activities within the community on November 18th and 19th, as well as tips related to persons, locations and sightings remain under investigation.
Investigators are reviewing recent information including tips, interviews, and reports generated since last November, seeking links that may be helpful as they plan and conduct future searches and interviews, and determine additional evidence analysis needs.
Investigators continue to seek information and evidence from the public to determine whether something happened to Dylan at the home or whether he somehow left the home and something happened to him away from the home.
Investigators are asking for information from anyone who may have been at their Vallecito homes or traveling in Vallecito on CR 500 or CR 501 between 7:00 PM Sunday, November 18th and 7:00 PM on Monday, November 19th.
If citizens feel they saw or heard any activity during this time frame that was not normal for their neighborhood they are asked to call the local Dylan Tip Line (970-382-7511) to leave a message and contact information. The Dylan Tip Line is checked frequently by Investigators.
Anonymous tips can be left with Durango-La Plata Crime Stoppers (970-247-1112). Persons can also call the hotline for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at 1-800-THE LOST (1-800-843-5678). A reward for finding Dylan is in excess of $50,000.00.

Update message via Official Facebook page
Team Dylan Warriors! Thank you all for continuing the fight to find Dylan. We appreciate how hard everyone is truly working to bring him home to us.
We would like to take a moment to give a brief update on what has been happening over the past few weeks. Of course most of you are aware and were apart of the campaign to get Dr. Phil on board to do a show, and THANK YOU for that. Because of all of you Dylan is now in the homes of millions of people. Tues. show had more than 3.8 million people watching and Wed. show had more 4 million. Incredible numbers of people!
Right before the family flew to L.A. for the show, we brought in a team of dogs from N.M. to search the lake area thoroughly. Wendy and her dogs did a great job covering the very rugged areas of the lake. The last few days that Wendy and the dogs were there the family decided to break open the ice in the same area that cadaver dogs had indicated a scent in the lake back in November. Her dogs did catch a light scent in this same area. We then checked about 100 yards east of that area and a scent was also detected in that area.
As I have stated early, we are still holding on to HOPE. WE CHOOSE HOPE! While it's true that the dogs have picked up a scent we don't know what that is, and again there are many, many homeless people who live in the area.
We began researching and contacting professionals that can help us search the lake. We have contacted many people and organization and have chosen a team we believe possess the knowledge of not only water and recovery, but the latest in technological equipment. From high tech sonar to ROV's we believe this team is the best and are making plans to get them here as soon as the ice melts enough to get a boat on the water. We feel that this step is necessary and if nothing else we might be able to provide closure for another family.
The family has a very solid team of professionals working hard on this case as well. These professionals work under the radar without media exposure. This is why we chose them. The are not interested in using Dylan's disappearance to promote themselves or their organizations. They are interested in FINDING DYLAN and that means the most to us.
We are continuing with the awareness campaign and working hard, hard, hard to get Dylan into even more homes throughout the world. This is where all of you come in! Keep sharing this page, talk about Dylan - show people his pictures and his missing poster. We will never EVER let the world forget that Dylan is missing. YOU ARE TEAM DYLAN ~ YOU ARE HIS WARRIORS! Let's bring him home!

Message from Dylan's mom
I know that you have seen Dr. Phil by now. I thank you for watching. It wasn't pretty but it never is when children are missing. But we have made ground and that is all that matters. No matter what you believe please keep believing in Dylan. Thank you all and let's all stay hopeful in finding Dylan. Love Elaine

Unauthorized profile
Statistically Dylan Redwines kidnapper would be within 60 miles of where he was taken based on the area. Its more than probable that we are looking for a middle aged (45- 50) white male based on known predators threw out the country. More than likely single living by themselves with below average job, meaning not wealthy but surviving modestly. This person would have changed their routine since 11/19/12, maybe someone that would normally stop at local pub hasn't been stopping in. There food buying would have changed, buying cereal they don't normally buy and ordering pizza a lot more often, Dylan was a picky eater so the person might be tiring to keep him calm with food he likes. This person could have also bought video game system recently or has been renting movies a lot, maybe buying kid sized cloths also. If this person is in the area somebody had to the notice the changes. Report anyone that seems to be nervous or has been doing anything different around that time. Even if your not sure let the Police check them out, its worth a shot and you can do it anonymously threw the tip line. If your right its worth $50,000. The person can be different than we described but the changed routine and buying habits are more than likely the case.
This is NOT the Police profile buts its based on a lot of research, if there's something here I should add or take out ill take suggestions. If there is a profile I haven't see it, please point me to where it is.
Somebody has him, somebody knows where he is, we are coming for you Dylan we just need to be pointed in the right direction.
