i agree with you 100% :banghead:

approx 22 miles or so

I keep thining as I look at that pic that it would have been a pretty long hike deep into heavy vegetation

it would have been pretty well vegitated in the summer time.

it frustrated me in the beginning as well. there is so much rural area though I really think they were relying on farmers out in their fields during harvest and hunters in the fields (pheasant season) and in the woods (deer season) to actually cover the most area.

OMG...you are so right!!! i remember that now. that is so weird and I hope LE is looking into that.

sorry if I sounded snippy, I wasn't trying to...just wanted to let everyone know that here they pretty much call every park a "wildlife area" or a "reserve" or similar verbage.. :blushing:

I do not believe the original search extended 25 miles from Meyers Lake. There was a search done the weekend immediately following the disappearance of the surrounding area of Meyers Lake, later the landfill, and then LE asked hunters and farmers to be on the lookout.

it baffles me as well. again, I am not familar with this area but I know a high number of Iowans LOVE to fish! I would think that this area would have been frequented by fishermen....but then again, with the rivers being so low (and I believe that much of the Wapsipinicon River is fairly...

I believe this is the Wapsipinicon River running through this area. I know people that tube and canoe that river but I am not sure about that exact location of the river where they do. it is a 300 mile long river running from the northern part of Iowa to the southeast until emptying into the...

i didn't hear that, but if LE made a reference to divers, they may be looking for evidence/weapon in the river there where the bodies were found
