On June 25, troopers from B Detachment were asked to conduct a welfare check at Sapp's Willow residence, five days after he was last seen.

"Troopers and volunteer search teams conducted a thorough search of the property and were unable to locate Sapp," the Department of Public Safety said in its daily dispatch.

Sapp's property sits along the Kashwitna River.

Anyone who has seen Sapp or knows his whereabouts is asked to call Alaska State Troopers at (907) 352-5401.
