HELP US FIND JAKHOBI HALE

My name is Autumn, and I am Jakhobi Hale’s mother.

On May 16, 2026, my son Jakhobi left his grandparents’ property near Darrington, Washington, telling his family that he was going hiking in the mountains.

He never came home.

Since that day, my life has been consumed with one purpose: finding my son and bringing him home.

Jakhobi is 21 years old, approximately 6’3”and 195 pounds, with brown hair worn in dreadlocks. He was last known to be wearing an olive/forest-green Helly Hansen rain jacket, gray pants, and black Harley-Davidson boots.

His missing-person case is being handled by the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office:

Case #SO26-64455

For more than three months, I have been coordinating search efforts after the search-and-rescue team left on day 7. Law enforcement, family members, volunteers, hunters, hikers, and members of our community have helped search the rugged mountains/ forests and canvassed the surrounding area in Darrington.

But Jakhobi is still missing.

Why I Am Asking for Help

I am creating this fundraiser to establish funds dedicated to helping bring Jakhobi home. Each week, it’s getting harder for me to financially keep up.

My goal is for funds to support the continued effort to locate Jakhobi, including legitimate search-related expenses, public outreach, and coordination with appropriate authorities to support ongoing search efforts.

I want to be completely transparent with everyone who contributes. Donations will be accounted for, and updates will be provided regarding how funds are being used.

Any funds raised will be used solely for legitimate efforts to locate Jakhobi, such as search expenses, printing and distributing flyers, outreach, search equipment, transportation, and other reasonable costs directly connected to finding him.

We Need Answers

Somebody may have seen or know something.

Someone hiking, hunting, camping, driving through the area, picking mushrooms, working in the mountains, or traveling through one of the communities connected to Jakhobi may have information they don’t realize is important.

Even the smallest detail could matter.

Please help us keep Jakhobi’s face circulating and help us continue searching.

If you cannot donate, please share this fundraiser and Jakhobi’s missing-person information.

One share could reach the person who has the information we need.

I am his mother, and I will continue searching for my son for as long as it takes.

I just need help carrying this search forward by the community.

Please help us find Jakhobi and bring him home.
