ADVERTISEMENT Craig Arnold, 41, is an assistant professor of English at the University of Wyoming. He went missing Monday during a visit to a volcano on the island of Kuchinoerabu-jima in the northern Ryukyu Islands of southern Japan. Japanese law only requires authorities to look for missing people for three days, but University of Wyoming officials say the search has been extended through Sunday. Arnold went for a hike up the volcano around mid-afternoon Monday, shortly after arriving at the island by ferry and checking in at an inn, according to his brother, Chris Arnold, of Brooklyn, N.Y. When Arnold hadn't returned by 8 p.m., the inn staff went looking for him. They reported him missing at 9 p.m., and a formal search began that night. Forty people, dogs and a helicopter joined the following day's search. Police reported finding Arnold's tracks on a trail up the volcano, but they couldn't find any tracks coming down. The island is about 7 miles long by 3 miles wide and dominated by an 1,800-foot volcano that last erupted in 1980. Dense vegetation covers much of the island, but the area near the caldera, the volcanic crater, is bare. Japanese authorities speculate that after emerging at the top, Arnold may have had difficulty finding the trail again to get back down the volcano, Chris Arnold said. The thick terrain makes helicopter searches virtually useless, said Chris Arnold's wife, Augusta Palmer. "So they're really having to do it by lines of people walking across areas to make sure they're covered," she said. Arnold has published two award-winning collections of poetry: "Shells" in 1999, and "Made Flesh," which came out last year. He's known for his searching, passionate, humorous verse, such as "Hymn to Persephone," which begins, "Help me remember this/how once the dead were locked/out of the ground/and wandered sleepless and sun-blinded." Chris Arnold said his brother lived in Japan for four years as an army brat and has since been a world traveler who has explored many volcanoes for his book. "He has a lot of experience with visiting volcanoes, and he's very knowledgeable about taking precautions and knowing about the terrain, about the conditions, possible ways he could get into trouble and to plan for those," Chris Arnold said. ___ Associated Press Writer Hillel Italie in New York contributed to this report. ___ On the Net: Craig Arnold blog: http://volcanopilgrim.wordpress.com/ Poetry Magazine blog: http://www.poetryfoundation.org/harriet/2009/04/ Email Story IM Story Printable View Blog This Recommend this article 0 users recommend Sign in to recommend this article » Most Recommended Stories » Related Articles: World Driver in Dutch royal attack dies in hospitalAFP - 1 hour 49 minutes ago Factory orders drop 0.9 percent in MarchAP - 1 hour 49 minutes ago Officials: Arrest in Azerbaijan bloodbathAP - 1 hour 50 minutes ago BCS warns playoff system threat to bowl gamesAP - 1 hour 36 minutes ago AP NewsAlertAP - 1 hour 54 minutes ago Most Popular – World Viewed Kenyan women to sex-starve men -- for politics Chrysler files for bankruptcy, Fiat develop plan Britney's ex-manager forced to stay away from star Israel deems 'swine flu' kosher after all Swine flu spreads economic shivers View Complete List » Search: Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Top Stories Most Popular Copyright © 2009 Yahoo!
