I've spent a solid few hours looking and analyzing the great map that sjsleuth83 posted (thanks so much) and I there are still some things we need to know and info to be obtained, but basically it looks like two possible scenarios based upon my theory or lines of thinking.
A) If the handcuffs and condoms are related, then we really, really need to know about the homes and businesses on Palm. At the very end of Palm, there is a gate which leads to what looks like a farming or construction business, and as you drive down Palm there are a few barns and homes. I know the neighbors have been open to LE, but we really need to know if anything was seen, or tiretracks, or anything else back there that may seem linked. Going on the assumption they are related, that would the abductor(s) drove Sierra to the end of Palm and walked or drove into the mountainous area, on their way back discarded the cuffs, then drove back down Santa Theresa, throwing her phone, making a right on Laguna and hiding her purse next to the building, and probably kept going right onto the 101. At least to me, that makes the most logical sense.
B) If they are not connected to the case, it seems the most likely would be making a right after her street, continuing on Scheller and throwing her phone while she was still in the car as they got to the intersection. Then, and this is my speculation, they made a right onto Santa Theresa and then a left onto Bailey and headed to Calero Lake Park and the Calero Resevoir. To me, I don't think they got on to any highway with Sierra in the car, I think they will find her somewhere in the mountains and resevoirs they are currently searching. All MOO
