Rodger DeVaul
Est. body dumped
Description:
"Nelson and DeVaul were last seen at about 1:30am on Saturday morning, Feb. 12, 1983. Nelson's body was found at 5:30am that morning [...] DeVaul's body was found near Mt Baldy in the Angeles National Forest the next day, Sunday, but evidence showed that he could have been dumped there as early as Saturday morning" (LAT 2/15/89).

Note: The drive from where Nelson was found to where DeVaul was found is about 1hr 8min or 1hr 19min according to Google Maps (assuming they were dumped one after each other with the only gaps being to drive to the next location; even if this is the case, it is entirely possible that DeVaul was dumped before Nelson).
