I am also a bit confused about where the car was found. Been following this case from the start but just went back and read from page 1 all the way through again, and noticed one post from (what sounds like) a local, or someone familiar w the area-
This leads me to believe the area where her car was found was a bit less remote than the “trail”, as I am picturing it. If vehicles are passing through regularly at all times of day and night, it isn’t the primitive type of backwoods trail it is being described in the articles I’ve read. At least that’s what I had imagined.
Also- the main reason I went back through and read the whole thread was because it kept nagging at me that we didn’t have a good reason or explanation for the odd timing of her car being reported as spotted on the “trail” to LE - 1:30am on Thursday. It kept bugging me that we didn’t have more info about who was wandering along a trail in the middle of the night and reported seeing a baby in a car. However… the whole scenario makes a lot more sense in the context of
@ComfortablyNumbb ’s post- that it is in fact a regularly traveled road, so it’s much more “normal” - Or at least less bizarre (and creepy tbh)- that someone driving along would notice the presence of a car on the side of the road and report it to LE. Honestly makes more sense that it would be reported at 1:30am, as this would be a time of heightened awareness of anything out of the ordinary. Easier to dismiss a car on the side of the road during the day, maybe thinking someone had gotten out to do some hiking… but at night it would certainly raise some alarm bells.
