West Yorkshire Police are continuing to appeal for information to help trace a keen wild camper from Leeds who has been missing for nearly two months.
Carl Warr, aged 59, was reported missing on June 24 after last being seen in Farnley on June 20. Police have said he often goes walking alone for up to a month at a time, either wild camping or staying at campsites and bunkhouses, but he normally keeps in regular contact with his family.
He is known to visit Cumbria, including around Carlisle, and North Yorkshire, including around Gargrave. He has previously made mention of looking to find work fruit picking “down South”.

He normally keeps in regular contact with his family, and they are very concerned for his welfare having not heard from him for such a long time. Detective Inspector Dan Bates, of Leeds District CID, said: “Although Carl’s lifestyle includes going off walking and camping alone, often for long periods, it is completely out of character for him to not have been in touch with his family for this long.
“They are very concerned about him, and we would like to hear from anyone who has seen him or who has any information that could help to trace him.”
He is described as being 6ft tall, bald, of stocky build with a grey full beard. Carl was last seen carrying a backpack and wearing a grey zipped jacket, grey jeans and hiking boots.
Anyone who has seen him or who has any information that could assist in tracing him is asked to Leeds District CID via 101 quoting reference 13220342084 or online at www.westyorkshire.police.uk/101livechat
