Watching GH's video, I was surprised how extremely close the driveway was beneath the end of the bridge, where Libby recorded the video and "down the hill". As the crow flies, the private drive, before it bends toward the residence, leads almost directly to the river and the area where the bodies were discovered. Where the private driveway runs under the bridge does not appear to be visable from the residence.
The POI location is also identified here - Post #96 Map by "No It's Not"

My current theory, a slight deviation from GH's.
This tragedy was a planned abduction and the suspect knew the girls were heading to the bridge to take photos. Possibly via SM.
1. Suspect parks in the public parking area waiting for the girls to get dropped off.
2. After they arrive he drives to the private driveway and parks near or beneath the bridge with the intent to kidnap them from the bridge, into his vehicle.
3. Suspect crosses bridge and at a site unseen, waits for Abby and Libby to start walking on the bridge.
4. Suspect crosses back over the bridge, behind the girls, when they are near the end.
5. Towards the end of the bridge he attracts their attention, pulls a gun and orders them "down the hill" toward the vehicle.
6. The girls resist, and eventually flee partway down the private driveway and then directly across the river. Once they've crossed, the suspect abandons the abduction and shoots to kill, leaving no witnesses.
7. Suspect leaves the scene.
From the time the girls get to the end of the bridge, events take place very quickly, possibly in less than 10 minutes. The suspect was sighted before the murders walking around or near the parking lot area as he was waiting.
Just my opinion......
Thats plausible. I think SM might play a big role in this, especially after the press conference in Flora a week or 2 after the murders, when they told parents to know what their children are doing online. Paraphrasing. IMO
