Big shout out to the assistant store manager at Walmart on Watson Rd in Buckeye. They are helping us all out by donating 800 bottles of drinking water. We’ll have it ready to hand out to those who need it at the search briefing this coming Saturday. (07/31/21).
We found a pair of “West Coast Choppers” sunglasses and turned them into the drone pilot ( Evan?). Was the father able to determine if they belonged to Daniel?
Thank you all for all the love and support that you have shown to me and my family. We are forever grateful to have people like you. The prayers, kind words of encouragement, tips, searches, and financial support have been a blessing and we thank you!
When I came to Arizona in search of my son and to find answers, I must admit, I was overwhelmed. I had to deal with the unknown, what to expect when I got here. As some of you may know, I left my home in Columbia, Sc, and have been here in Arizona since looking for Daniel. This is what any father would do for his child. Without thought, I packed my car and took the long trip here. I didn’t think about how much it would cost, where I would live, and how I would find my son. By instinct and my love for my son, I moved. I am here and since I have been here, I met many great people like yourself. I have never in my life felt so much love and support from anyone outside of my family and friends. I do not take any of you for granted and value your time and dedication to find someone that you do not know. You all took on my pain and help carry my burden; Thank you. I am forever grateful!
When I saw many of you out in the desert with me and my family, I was in awe seeing how focused you all were. You helped me learn about the Arizona desert’s terrain, how to organize searches, and how to stay safe while looking for my son.
Because of your financial support, I am able to fulfill my commitment to my son and live in Arizona, until he’s found, I am able to travel, obtain needed equipment, get help from professionals and organize.
I am here to represent my family. Daniel has a mother, Melissa, who has to carry this pain from afar. She lives in Columbia, Sc, and wishes that she could be here in Arizona. I ask you all to continue to pray for her because it’s the most difficult thing that a mother has to go through. She rather not be in the public eye, but she’s not invisible, she’s here with me, she and our children. Daniel also has four other siblings that love him and are devastated that he’s missing. Only one of his siblings lives here in Arizona, the others are in South Carolina and in California. Daniel has grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins, and close friends that share in the pain. We all want Daniel back and thank you all for helping us get there.
Again, my family and I thank you. I will never forget the outpouring of love that you have given me and to my family. GOD Bless You!!
David, You and your family are loved by many. As a people, we will continue to stand with you through this. You nor your family will do this alone.
I pray that God will bless and comfort you during this incredibly difficult time.
Thank you Tracey! I am happy that you were able to come out. Thank you for the prayers. I believe in them. We need a lot of prayers right now. I appreciate you showing love by coming out. Thank you. GOD Bless!!
Hi Lauren
Thank you for the prayer. Thank you for your support. It’s a tough road but with people like yourself, you make that road a little easier to cross. GOD Bless you.
David, We are all touched by your graciousness and thoughtfulness. We can’t imagine your conflicting emotions and having to live each day with the “what ifs”. Hopefully, one day the “what if’s” can be put to rest…either literally or spiritually. One way or the other you will find peace.
Hi Jeff.
I believe that too. GOD will answer our questions, HE will also help me (us) find my son. I believe in faith, without it, I wouldn’t be able to see past what’s in front of me. I know that GOD will help me see my son again.
As the days go by, it’s challenged but I keep holding on. Thank you for all that you do Sir.
David-
I brought my daughter with me to attend the search. I am a mother of 5 and a grand mother of 5 and I can’t even imagine what you and his mother are feeling. From the very 1st day that I heard he was missing I was praying that he was found alive. Now, I’m just praying that we do find him. I am determined to spread the news of Daniel. And the help that is still very much needed. I promise you this David. I WON’T STOP helping you until Daniel is found. Our “police” services SUCK!!!! And I am very disappointment in them. Smh!!! Oh well! Im not stopping until Daniel is found. I hope we’re having a search this upcoming Saturday? Right?
Hello Amanda, My name is Paul Adams. I am the search coordinator for David Robinson (Daniel’s father) First, “Thank you” for your kind words. I will pass them on to David as I will be having a call with him this morning. Also, thank you for spreading the word about the search operations. The more people we can get involved, the better.
I wanted to quickly let you know. I was involved with law enforcement for almost 20 years.. I was a volunteer, I did not get paid to do what I did. I can also tell you that I have been involved with more SAR operations than I care to talk about. There are an average of about 600,000 people who go missing in the United States every single year. Specifically, in Arizona just this year alone so far, we have had 915 people go missing. Arizona ranks second overall (behind Alaska) for most missing people per capita.
I know from being on the front line that law enforcement (the police) are literally doing everything they can. Remember, besides looking for those who are missiing, they still need to respond to auto accidents, 911 calls such as domestic violence calls….and the list goes on…their radio never stops sending them to dangerous calls. I also know that specifically, with this case the detectives are working night and day contrairy to what the general public beleives. I know this because I am in contact and coordinate with them almost daily.
99% of the men and women who where a badge give 100% of what they can to uphold their oath. There are so many things that go on, both in front of and behind the scenes to insure this search is conducted with the utmost thoroughness and professionalism. One slip of missed information could mean completely diffrent turn-outs.
I hope this makes sense.
Again, I want to say from the bottom of my heart, “Thank you so very much for coming out and helping make a diffrence in the search for Daniel”. Please keep spreading the word and lets all work together to help bring Daniel home.
Thank you Amanda for your labor of love. I thank your daughter for coming out with you. You both are much appreciated by me and my family. I came here not knowing what to expect, I am surrounded by loving people like yourself.
Thank you for your desire to continue to help me and my family find Daniel. Daniel has always desire to see people come together, in these hurtful circumstances, he has brought us together. I from the bottom of my heart thank you for coming to our rescue and search with us. I can’t do this without you, you are a blessing. Thank you! GOD Bless you!!
David-
Did you see that comment above about the sunglasses that were found? West coast choppers sunglasses??? Somebody please respond back to me please.
Hi Amanda, This is Paul Adams. I am the search coordinator. I am almost positive that David has seen the sun glasses. However, I am having a call with him shortly and will mention to him to make sure he has. Thank you very much for bringing that up.
I have a few post on Facebook asking for help. Have we changed the meeting location? It was 29110 W McDowell Road.
Please confirm the meeting location so I can update the post.
Hello, the meeting location will be Sun Valley Parkway and Cactus Road. Once you approach that location, there will be someone guiding you back to the location where the search will begin.
Will there be another search this Saturday? If not will the sector map be updated if we go out on our own? I want to try and get more people together if possible to help.
What information are you looking for ? If I have it, I will send it to you. I also try to use the Community Chat and social media to get information out to people. Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
⚠️ Just a word of caution to all out looking. We found fresh & unmistakable mountain lion tracks in grids 1739 & 1840 today. Like, within a day fresh. Be cautious, be armed & don’t be alone.
Yes, the rancher told us that their is a mountain lion there. A fox flew right infront us running FAST…. There’s many scavenger out there! That’s why it’s best if you have your weapon on you. Or atleast someone in your group does. Because we looked under trees. And i don’t want to be caught off guard by one.
The tracks were south of wagner in the valley just north of the vehicle recovery location. Also found several this morning in the immediate area south of the recovery location. Opened a gate for a game & fish official on my way out, maybe he was going to look around? I don’t know.
Spent several hours out looking today, met some wonderful locals out there looking too. Just know that even when it’s not an official day, the search never stops.
If I know when somebody else will be out there, I’ll be out there with you! There is not 20 mins that go by without me thinking/ talking/ informing/ crying for Daniel. I had a job interview on Monday and they asked “What kind of things are you in to”? And my answer was “right now my goal in life is to find Daniel Robinson. Oh you don’t know his story? Do you watch the news? Yeah, I know our news stations suck! Tell them Daniel’s story. I let them know about Saturday’s search. I try my hardest to recruit them to the search.
So, to answer your question right now my goal in life is to find Daniel Robinson for his parents, so they can take him home.”
Now I have the same exact convo with the cashier at the grocery store. Standing in line at circle k to anyone who will listen. I’m THAT person who won’t stop talking about him. So if I know when someone else will be out there. Or if I can join someone then I’ll be out there EVERYDAY with y’all right now. It KILLS me that I have to wait until Saturday’s to search. I’m able and willing to be out there everyday. But I drive a Nissan maxima and my fear is to end up in a situation that Daniel ended up in and getting stuck in a ravine, ALONE. So, if anyone can post back to me I’d appreciate it. And I’ll be there on Saturday.
Hello everyone, we will be performing a search for Daniel Robinson again this weekend (10/16/21). Briefing will begin at 6:45. Meeting location will be near Sun Valley Parkway and Cactus road. Once you arrive, there will be others there to direct you back into the parking areal. Briefing will begin at 7am. We will be conducting 3 concurrent searched on Saturday.
One will be along Sun Valley Parkway. One will be within certain areas of the Hassayampa River and the third will be within the corridor area west of the crash site. Most who want to participate in the far west search will need 4 wheel drivers or other ATV vehicles. The terrain going back to that area is a little rough and the dirt can be very soft at times. Hope to see many of you out this. Take care and stay safe ! Paul ~
Spent 5 hours out there today.
Thank you so much, for coming out and helping.

Hi, Amanda
I have not heard about sunglasses being found. Where were they found? Was it on our search day?
Yes. It was the past weekend’s search. Do you know if he wears “West coast choppers” sunglasses? Was he into WCC?
So what happened with the glasses? Any leads?
FYI: For all those bringing FSR radios, we will be communicating over channel 8.
I have a few post on Facebook asking for help. Have we changed the meeting location? It was 29110 W McDowell Road.
Please confirm the meeting location so I can update the post.
Thanks.
Hello, the meeting location will be Sun Valley Parkway and Cactus Road. Once you approach that location, there will be someone guiding you back to the location where the search will begin.
Just to confirm, we don’t need an off road vehicle to make it to the search site?
That is correct. An off-road vehicle is not required.
Is it possible to have the coordinates of the meeting location? I can’t find the intersection of Cactus Rd and Sun Valley PKWY on Apple Maps.
Here are the coordinates of the meeting location 33.595308, -112.686609. I had trouble finding the meeting location on Apple Maps.
Thank you Andrew for giving the coordinates.
Sector map appears to not be working.
The map was being modified. It is now available for public view.
Is there Drone pilots already searching the area?
We may have a couple of drone pilots. We are in need of more.
Thank you !
Rzr1 covered grid 1140/1141/1240 heading to 1241 should be done by11:00
Thank you sir. The information was passed along to our search group coordinator. Hope to see you back on again.
Trying to locate Bryan (who helped ferry me back to my white toyota 4 runner on the 24th). If you see this, call me 602-770-0875
Are we having another search this coming up Saturday?
Hello Amanda, there will be another search this weekend. Same time, same meeting place. Hoping to see you out there.
Paul ~
The search will happen. The website has been updated. Same time, same location. As always, thank you for your help !
Paul ~
Will there be another search this Saturday? If not will the sector map be updated if we go out on our own? I want to try and get more people together if possible to help.
Hello Christy, there will be another search this weekend. Same time, same meeting place. Hoping to see you out there.
Paul ~
Paul are sending out search information to everyone who searched last Saturday?
Tracey,
What information are you looking for ? If I have it, I will send it to you. I also try to use the Community Chat and social media to get information out to people. Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
I just wanted to double check regarding this upcoming Saturday. Also appreciate you getting the word out.
Highly encouraging those with drones , ATV’s and 4×4’s to bring them along if possible.
Thank you in advance for your help !

Spent several hours out there today.
⚠️ Just a word of caution to all out looking. We found fresh & unmistakable mountain lion tracks in grids 1739 & 1840 today. Like, within a day fresh. Be cautious, be armed & don’t be alone.

Out there too this AM.
Ah…date and time stamp off by 7 hours forward. Was out the morning of the 6th, 2021.
Andrew, Were the tracks basically in Wagner Wash or a close side wash then?
Thanks.
The tracks were south of wagner in the valley just north of the vehicle recovery location. Also found several this morning in the immediate area south of the recovery location. Opened a gate for a game & fish official on my way out, maybe he was going to look around? I don’t know.
Search will begin at 6am today.
Sorry all, date and time are now fixed.
