I was recently asked to lend voice-over talent to a PSA for a most unusual cause.  I, of course, wanted to help right away.  I can't imagine what Matt's friends are feeling -- I have personally met one of the friends searching so assiduously for Matthew B. Greene.

Matt has been missing from the Mammoth Lakes area since July 17, 2013.

DETAILS:

Matt was hiking/climbing with some friends in the Mammoth Lakes region and staying at the Shady Rest campground.  Prior to his disappearance he happened upon some car trouble (his Subaru blew a head gasket).  Matt stayed behind while his car was repaired at the Norco Goodyear repair shop with plans to meet up with friends in CO down the line.  His last known phone call was to the repair shop around 4:30 pm on July 16th, with some texts to said friend around 8-8:30 that same night.  Additionally, his last use of credit cards was a purchase in Mammoth Lakes that same day. 

When Matt did not meet up with friends as planned, it was discovered that his car was waiting, fixed, for over a week and he had not returned to the campsite where his gear was and where he had been paying day-to-day in antipation of his car being ready on the 18th and moving on.  

Matt is 39, approximately 5'11", 155 lb, with blondish/brown short hair and blue eyes.  He was carrying a large black/white backpack, yellow LaSportiva Nepal Extremes, crampons, and one ice axe.  He had a blue hat, and was probably wearing a long sleeve shirt with a darker (green/black) short sleeve on top.  

Matt teaches high school math in Nazareth, PA and lives in Bethlehem, PA.  He tends to spend every spring/winter/summer break in the outdoors - smaller jaunts in NY and heading out west for the summers.  Prior to his current position, Matt was in the Peace Corps in Papua New Guinea. 

If you know ANYTHING, please call the Mammoth Lakes Police at (760) 934-2536; Detective Hornbeck can be reached at extension 17.
