That's possible to me.So you think maybe she got disoriented but was still lucid enough to avoid the cactus?
To me, if one is lucid enough to recognize danger in the form of cactus in front of you, then one should also be lucid enough to know those are not on the path and one's bearings are lost and it's time to call out to your significant other who is just around the corner. moo.That's possible to me.
Losing your sense of direction is different than seeing obstacles that are right in front of you. JMO.
As long as you are not disoriented and use the telephone lines to go in the wrong direction.Do not forget she has a telephone pole road running right through the middle of this area between where RT is located and their 5th wheel camper.. Hard to get lost ... Anyway you go you hit something that gives a person Bering on where you are ..
Imho, one cannot compare the case of Paul Miller to that of BT.
PM set out deliberately for the purpose of a deliberate desert hike, all on his own. There was nobody with him who could say for sure where he was at any given point in time. It is only known for sure where his vehicle was parked. He was there for specific reasons of his own, and we have no idea what might have prompted him to venture off to wherever he did before he succumbed for whatever reasons he did.
On the other hand, it was an impromptu short stop to see rock formations which prompted BT to be out in the desert. BT was not going for a hike, nor was she prepared for hiking, based on her reported attire and her stated supplies (none, other than beer in hand). She had someone right there with her who knew exactly where she was at the moment she disappeared, and what time it was, and where she was headed to, and the location of her destination, how close it was and how evident its path was, from where she disappeared. Because her travel-mate was aware of all of this, he also contacted police much sooner than likely would have been the case with someone in a position such as Paul Miller's.
There also seems to have been people who believe they saw PM on the trails on the day he went missing, but meanwhile, there have been no sightings of BT reported since she left her own home that morning.
So while it is wonderful news that PM's body was located, even though there was nobody with him to say where exactly he was on that day, BT's body remains hidden even though we know exactly where she was. To me, these are completely different circumstances.
I was alone.. One man searching..
For all the area I did walk over 2 days, she is not where I was. I am positive of that. My visual was good and I searched every crevasse I could find and flat land too. But it is a "Big Area" and if she walked beyond my search area then there she is. Waiting to be found.
I walked it one direction to the vehicle pull out viewing area and approx 1/4 mile the other direction.Has a search been done in both directions along the telephone poles, does anyone know?
Thank you for your valiant efforts to search for this lovely woman that never made it to safe shelter on July 12, 2019 after completing a short, 2 mile afternoon hike with her husband. Sharing your efforts with us is much appreciated.
I'm saddened and perplexed that BT did not arrive at her trailer given the albeit limited eye witness account from her husband.
Respectfully, I don't know what more we can learn from RT during an interview here so many months later.
When his mind was fresh, he told authorities/us that he believed BT walked ahead of him while he stopped and took a photo. He said he saw her round a corner on the trail heading towards their trailer and believes that somebody probably picked her up when she crossed the road to the camper trailer because she was wearing a bikini.
RT also told Inside Edition that he was deemed deceptive after taking a polygraph test. Under these circumstances, any worthy attorney would advise him to remain silent and I'm not interested in small talk about BT's favorite beer or love notes he's holding on to.
MOO
We also don't know if she actually took a walk of any length at the location we have been discussing. MOObbm
Agreed.
And we don't know if she had a beer.
There have been discussions about dehydration and possible disorientation but if she was there and hiking for 2+ hours --she'd have water and maybe not wearing that bikini at all.
As a person who enjoyed the outdoors based on photos of her; she'd have known how to hike safely and be adequately attired.
None of this makes any sense.

I like Tim ..I hope that 2020 brings answers as to what happened to Barb.
I do think that if she got disoriented and wandered off trail dressed in a bikini, she didn't make it too far.
I remember I could barely walk 15 minutes while in Las Vegas in that heat without a having a cold drink! (My closest personal comparison in terms of climate - not terrain.)
They need to get a drone and search between rocks. If one gets lost....standing on an elevated platform (or rock) to look at the landscape helps with a visual perspective on where you are. Barb possibly being dehydrated and perhaps a wee bit buzzed (drinking beer in the sun) may have caused her to get dizzy and slip even after a short climb.
I sure wish that Texas EquuSearch would have a go at this.

I’ve met him. Thanked him for all that he has done for the missing and their families. He shook my hand, smiled and introduced his wife. I went away thinking his smile never reached his eyes. The depth of sadness was still there. I don’t know if I could be that strong after everything he has been through.I like Tim ..
He is a good man with the right attitude.. His own horrific experience gives him a driving force to find the missing. To bring an answer to families .. Now they know.
It still haunts him..
