Shorewood graduate Mike Sutherland is described as a friendly and easy-going kind of guy. 

According to his sister Erin Sutherland, 

He's very outdoorsy, and loves backpacking and camping. As a family we have been camping together since he was a baby, every summer. He also did boy scouts as a kid where his love for camping and the outdoors grew even more.

At Shorewood he was involved in track, cross country, and was captain for both during his senior year. He did wrestling for a season.

He is a strong student, and challenged himself with honors and AP classes throughout his time at Shorewood. After graduating from Shorewood, he moved to Montana State University, where he is studying biology with an emphasis on fish and wildlife.

And he is missing. Without a trace. He was last seen at home on Friday, June 26, around midnight. He left behind his wallet, ID, and debit cards. His phone has been inactive since midnight Friday.

Erin says, "He has many friends from Montana and Shoreline who love him and are equally as shocked by his sudden disappearance as we are."

On the weekend of July 11-12, over 20 groups fanned out around Puget Sound, distributing 4,000 flyers (download here) from Everett to Renton and beyond. They contacted shelters, street ministries, and any other homeless outreach searchers could think of.

Sutherland is described as Caucasian, 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighs about 135 to 145 pounds, and has blue eyes and brown hair.

The King County Sheriff’s Office is actively searching for Sutherland.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the King County Sheriff’s Office at 206-296- 3311 and reference case number 15-183-051.
