also wondering about two separate and distinct incidents. Ditch and boulder. Sad all around... feels hopeless until more is known/reported IMO
She may have driven out of the ditch after she didn't receive any 911 assistance (an act of desperation to save her own life?)There is something very odd about this case. What is even odder is that the woman says her car is in a ditch (it isn't), she's near some town that she isn't, she was out there for 2 days (she wasn't even "lost" for a day), she had a miscarriage (WTH??), and her family finds her car (that is the weirdest of all). Something doesn't smell right, IMO. Hope she's ok, but this is very strange. Wish the dispatch hadn't botched the coordinates bc that would have been 1 less odd thing.
Thank you for clarifying the location. As suspected - this area has little to no water!!! Desert hikers are carrying water through there for 50+ milesWhy hasn’t anyone looked EXACTLY where this girl is describing? She said the 74, anza, Palm Springs, cactus, mountains, Idyllwyld, dinosaurs. She is describing the mountain pass between anza and Palm Springs that most of us take to get to Palm Springs if we live from Temecula - San Diego. The 371 to the 74 to the 111 basically. I’m mind blown nobody has mentioned this!
Wait...replied to you thinking her location was in California. Wasn't it in Arizona?Why hasn’t anyone looked EXACTLY where this girl is describing?

Yes, I am very confused by the 911 call the “day before she was reported missing”. Was that the same call where she went missing, her last known location—and she just wasn’t reported by family or anyone until the next day? Or was she recovered from that call and then seen in Blythe at the hotel the next morning? I think the former but man, the way they phrase it in the reports could not be more confusing.Not entirely sure I even understand the facts. Is it possible she actually had two accidents? The first, went off the road into a ditch. Resulting in a concussion. Then while concussed, managed to drive out of the ditch, eventually stalling again, on the boulder. All in a fog. Imagine trying to make sense of any of that if your brain is cottony.
Do we have an accurate timeline? Was she out there for a day? Two? How far could a person walk in that state? She could be 10+ miles from where they're looking...
DBM DuplicationIt sounds to me like she was struggling with some possible mental health/ addiction issues.
It would be easy to become lost or disoriented driving through that area if someone was wide awake and had no other issues.
If she had an overload of anxiety and hit a boulder or anything else on that dirt road, it could have resulted in a concussion and perhaps even a temporary amnesia.
She very well could have lost a sense of time.

Or been dehydrated within a couple of hours if she had no water in those temperatures, especially if you factor in the fact that if she was initially knocked unconscious and/or suffered a concussion, she might have been without fluids for a number of hours. This in itself could have made her totally confused hence why the 911 call is so erratic in terms of what she was saying.It sounds to me like she was struggling with some possible mental health/ addiction issues.

"Authorities said she was found by a search and rescue expert who spotted her body nude under a tree"![]()
Woman who vanished near CA-AZ state line found dead, deputies say
Amanda Nenigar, 26, was found just outside of Cibola, Arizona, a town of under 300 in southwestern La Paz County.www.azfamily.com
Sad for sure. Likely undressed as she succumbed to the elements. Something akin to paradoxical undressing. No doubt she was overheated, dehydrated and unfed. I hope she found some comfort in the voice in her ear (dispatch)... just so very sad.... lost soul....and no one could find her and pull her to safety."Authorities said she was found by a search and rescue expert who spotted her body nude under a tree"
That's so tragic and strange
Hi, Megnut. Just wanted to chime in to say that it very well could have been actual paradoxical undressing. Nights are very cold in the southern California desert in February and March. Even if the ambient air temp is what sounds like a moderate 55°, it feels much colder and you’re in much more danger of hypothermia. The air is so dry and conditions are usually windy, so the warm air around your body is constantly being whisked away. Add to that the fact she was likely sitting or laying on cold rocky ground, and you get conductive heat loss. Years of camping in Death Valley in March/April and shivering in my sleeping bag on a Thermarest taught me how frigid a blazing hot desert can get at night. RIP to this woman and mom. She deserved better.Sad for sure. Likely undressed as she succumbed to the elements. Something akin to paradoxical undressing. No doubt she was overheated, dehydrated and unfed.

I hope they can piece together what happened.

These are the coordinates she read to the 911 dispatcher, although she read degree as “decimal” after the dispatcher *corrected* her: 33°16'53.3"N, 114°35'25.0"WDoes anyone have a map of the coordinates she gave, and the coordinates of her car and then where she was found?
