Worries grow as no new leads surface in Marie Hanson disappearance

It has been over 2 weeks since Marie Hanson was reported missing.  Marie, a resident of the South Lake Tahoe community, decided on a whim to attend this year’s Rainbow Gathering held outside of Portland in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest with her neighbor.
 
Separated at the Gathering, the neighbor retuned home to report Marie’s disappearance.  Marie is without her identification, cash, and vital medication.  Those interviewed claim she was last seen wearing jean shorts, tennis shoes, and a pink and white tank top.  A man known only as “Owl” who is described as about 6’1, slender build, with a gray ponytail was the last person seen with Marie.  Despite their desperate attempts at identifying this man, no one has come forward.
 
She is a mother, sister, daughter, wife, and grandmother.  She has strong ties to her community and this disappearance is nothing less than shocking to her family.  This weekend her family is holding a fundraiser to hire Search and Rescue as well as a private detective.  While the event is being held in her home town of South Lake Tahoe, you may still make a donation via http://http://mariehansonmissing.com .

Time is of the essence, and any little lead may be just what the family is looking for.  If you know where Marie Hanson is, or have any information regarding her travel plans or "Owl" do not hesitate to contact her family via the website.
