Great news for those of us who have been following this story:
Found!Last Friday, she and her husband had just pulled into either Grandview Campground or a nearby boondocking site -- the accounts are inconsistent. This is in the Bristlecone area, east of Big Pine. She hopped out of the car to take her small dog for a quick walk and just disappeared. Four days without food or water at 8000 feet.
I hope that after she recovers, she can let us all know what happened. This person is a very experienced camper and boondocker -- did she get lost? Or was there some sort of threat that caused her to run and become disoriented?
If it can happen to her, it can happen to almost anyone -- so that is why I would like to know what went wrong and how to avoid the problem.
This story resonated very strongly with me -- these folks are almost carbon copies of many of us on this forum -- avid campers and hikers, active seniors, adventurous but prudent travelers. What a sense of relief to hear that she is ok!!
