Alum Missing in Peru After Hiking Trip
Description
A Washington and Lee alum, Ian Treger, has vanished in Peru’s Cusco region after going silent during a hiking trip — a drastic departure from his usual behavior. Last seen leaving his Airbnb on May 13th, authorities are struggling to pinpoint his trail route amid dense terrain and limited surveillance. His mother has flown to Peru to join the search, working with local police, the U.S. Embassy, and military teams. The U.S. Embassy is assisting but directing further inquiries to Peruvian authorities. The family has launched a GoFundMe to fund costly private search teams, while Senator Mark Warner’s office is stepping in to help analyze Ian’s laptop once it returns to the U.S. Despite mounting uncertainty, loved ones cling to hope — this isn’t like Ian, and they’re determined to find him.
