I started a review of this case by looking at a Google map of the region and switched to the Terrain perspective. she was going to pick wildflowers. bus dispatcher. the type of guy you’d go anywhere with. summer is a great time for college students to escape the stress of the academic life and look for a wilderness adventure. “She was employed” not your typical city female. notice the similar dark complexion and attractive features of the two women. that’s not a usual description that’s used when we talk about people. walking twenty feet to a restroom - another bout of diarrhea. it’s a mind boggling scenario. if these people were traveling alone, how in the heck did they get in the strange places where their bones were located? Answer: they wouldn’t. it is a very compelling part of the movie. he had seen rabbits, which excited the boy. it must have been a shocking sight to see a nude boy’s body. only one woman is missing in this group. there are no females in any of the groups. they were the first females to have gone missing in Montana. someone who at a distance could be mistaken for a small man. one of only two women. boy with red hair. it is believed that the first white man stepped foot into Yosemite Valley sometime after 1850. the prolif- eration of mis- sing boys under ten continues. this is not to imply that the officers did… “The only item that searchers found” you may need to go back and again read what was found… odd-shaped Volks wagen car key 1967 Ford ranchero toward the area of Moclips and Pacific Beach.

"there was nothing, not a water bottle, not a candy wrapper". she also said she had seen "little cows". we need to ask ourselves where those cattle were. Ken and Gayla Scharper owned Dutch Boy Dairy.
