Would it have been easier for Joshua to navigate through that brush? I mean he is smaller obviously, but his experience walking through something like that would be pretty limited (or nil) too.

I just want to share a little bit of insight from personal exeriences from having lived in Central Texas for nine years. It's my own experience and my vary from other's who have lived there.
See what looks to be tall weeds? (I'm from KY and have lived in the South USA and the midwest USA at times and if that is your point of reference it is natural to think of them as tall weeds and therefore easy to pass through because they would bend and sway as tall weeds tend to do)
That's actually brush. Brush bordering on scrub. It is not easily passable. It would be difficult for me as an adult to make headway across a field filled with that brush/scrubby brush. I know I have tried to walk a field like that more than once and just could not make headway across the field and had to retrace my steps and find another route to where I wanted to walk to.
That right there puts a small shadow of doubt in my mind as of right now that this 18 month old baby navigated the fields behind his home or directly across the street from his home if they have brush and/or scrub like that especially in the thick of darkness.
I just don't see him making it very far into that brush in pitch darkenss. I don't imagine that there is a lot of lighting around those fields that illuminate those fields in the evening clearly enough to walk them and see where you are going.
Let's say he did make it out of the house, and he entered those fields to wander off. It goes against all of the experiences that I have had a Mom to think that this baby wandered off into the dark night. He wandered off across brush filled fields(s) where the brush was taller than him and he couldn't see which direction he was headed in. Why wouldn't he sit down where he was in that pitch black freezing field and cry for his parent(s)?
It isn't jibing for me now that I've had a look at those fields if they are the fields close to his home.
All JMHO.
I just don't think he wandered away in the cold ,dark weather.Why would he when he has a warm house,food ,and Toy Story to watch.I am glad you explained the picture and yes I thought they were weeds

They say no news is good news, but when you're a Websleuther, no news is just maddening.
Joshua where are you?
Just a reminder of what the searchers have to contend with:
Notice how much open empty space is behind and around their home:
There is so much brush and thick grass:
![]()
![]()
For some reason, I just really think he's out there. I want so much for them to find him. I had given up hope of them finding Caylee, and then they found her. I would not have thought anyone could find that tiny, little girl where they did, either.
Even if it's too late to save him, I really hope they can find him.
This is the first I've had a chance to look at the brush, and I cannot imagine a toddler without shoes going into that in total darkness. It would be difficult enough during the daytime for him to navigate through there without being scratched, poked in the face, etc. Now that I have seen the photos I would definitely say "no way" did he wander into that without screaming his lungs out for help!
