Still no news on the disappearance of Diana Zacarias who has been missing now for over 2 months. Her parents have made several trips from Louisiana to the Grand Canyon area to do their own searching, but with no success. A Go Fund Me page has been started. The link to that page will not post...

She was on the local Phoenix news tonight, she has been released from jail and allowed to return to New Mexico. http://www.azfamily.com/story/31783722/elizabeth-johnson-mother-of-baby-gabriel-released-from-maricopa-county-jail

Sure thing, when you have a plan to visit, fire away with any questions and I'll see if I can help. I have not been to the Havasupai area, but I do have a friend who has been there and she may be able to help with answers. Best advice I can give in general is try to plan your trip during the...

I just joined this site because I saw the post on Diana Zacarias being missing, and I hike at Grand Canyon regularly. On my hike last week, I noticed several missing person posters on the road to Hermit Rest. I did notice some unusual helicopter activity in the Hermit area. Since this is a...
