I read that earlier today and my first thought is she wasn't there the whole
time. It would be hard with just a sleeping bag and tent over the winter unless it was specialized winter gear.

That must be the case. She either walked or hitchhiked.

Did she walk/hitchhike to a homeless shelter to stay for 5+ months? The article said she had lost a lot of weight and

My wife and I talked about that earlier this morning. I don't think I could.

The moss and grass stuff would be hard to live off of all winter--if you could

By eating grass and moss?

Not enough nutrition or calories in grass or moss. You would die of malnutrition

Exactly what my wife said. You can fill your belly, but still starve.

Years ago we went on a tour of the Everglades (on a airboat).

I agree. I think she had to have been somewhere else for at least some of those 5 months.

I’m just skeptical of stories like this. Grass and moss, below freezing temps

Article makes it sound like law enforcement concluded she was there the entire time.

I don't know how they could conclude that.

What evidence/signs would you look for to determine if somebody had been camping for months? The only reason she was

A very, very large pile of human poop

Yeah, I get that she was probably there most of that time. But how could you be certain...

The location was remote up Diamond Fork. She didn’t have a car. Was she walking back and forth to SF in winter to buy

I don't know, man, but I also don't know how she survives on moss and grass that would be covered up by snow.

I'm skeptical too, sounds a lot like the lady who got "lost" in Zions last year

Yep. Similar to the lady who "dissapeared" in Zion last year

Fascinating story. It would be really interesting to hear where she actually went, what she did, etc.

I’m sure it’ll make a great Hallmark movie someday.

A handsome hiker ventures by. What a coincidence! They dated in high school.

Always the same storyline, just slight changes to the details.

I'm just glad my wife isn't into that. Getting her to watch any movie is an accomplishment.

Can we sell this to Hallmark and split the profit? I hope Mario Lopez is
