Very very unlikely. First off, the tracks are not that close to where the car was left, but also the train doesn't have a stop there, so jumping it at full speed would be quite a dangerous feat.
I live in Billings, MT not far from the Crow and Northern Cheyenne and we have a large Native population in town as well. There are at least 10 missing Native women/girls just since September in my area.
This is a crisis that too few people know about or acknowledge.
In my experience driving up and down I-90 between Billings and Bozeman/Belgrade for the last 25 years, I'd say it would be very unusual to see a hitchhiker at Reed Point.
Much more likely in Columbus, Big Timber, and the rest area west of Reed Point.
Because Reed Point is so small, has no...
Unless they were staying at the RV park (and had taken a tow-along vehicle to Bozeman) or got a ride with someone from the RV park after leaving Paul's car, I don't see any way someone would easily leave a vehicle and get out of Reed Point.
Sounds like she was heading in the direction of her appointment, if the dogs tracked from her home to Kachemak Way from her home near Main & Lee. East End road is just a short way further in that direction.
Seems to me that as someone who had backpacked around Europe, she's savvy enough not to...
I'd like more reliable, verified sources for the following things that have become "assumptions" throughout this thread, until then, I'd assume these to not be true:
Security footage exists
Gap in security footage
Keys found next to car
Car found in "spot" in PO parking lot
My speculation (and...
My take is that unless the source is verified, I would take the information with a grain of salt.
For instance, the post refers to a "space in the post office parking lot." Yet the Charley Project page says it was "roadside." If you look at the area on Google Street View, You see there's a...
I'm a fourth-generation Montanan who grew up in Billings and spent the better part of my adult life in Bozeman. As such, I've driven the stretch of I-90 between Billings and Bozeman hundreds of times.
I've read the bulk of the posts on this thread and could perhaps offer some unique...
I'm confident saying this is not what happened.
Paul would have had to have been the unluckiest person ever to pull off the Interstate in Reed Point, get out of his vehicle, and get attacked by a predatory animal. Bears are not common in that area, and even if they were, they wouldn't choose a...
I'm trying to figure out how he got into the park without being on camera since it was the North (Gardiner) entrance that had footage. He's have had to have gone in through the East (Cody) or Northeast (Cooke City), wouldn't he? So there should be footage somewhere.
Details that don't matter...
Good point, this happened on 10/8, the Beartooth closed for the season on 10/3. But Sunlight Basin -> Cooke City -> Gardiner -> Livingston may have been an option with quite a bit fewer people than the middle of the park.
I have a hard time trying to "think like a fugitive" and there are...
Having spent all but one year of my life in the Greater Yellowstone area, including living in Belgrade and Bozeman for 15 years, as well as being a (semi-pro) nature photographer, I've taken an interest in this case.
Reading through this thread, there are a few assumptions that people are...
