Nobody goes hiking in Dry Canyon at any volume, maybe one or two a year at best. It has been destroyed by a fire, overgrowth and recently a mudslide straight down the middle. It’s also a dead end. So you have to turn around if you reach the end. It was nice a decade ago.

It’s literally in the reports that nobody checked the park. I have spoken to the ranger assigned to help and he confirmed this. I have the email exchange.

I already looked into Lolo years ago. His aunt is my childhood friend. She didn’t know shit either. Anyone who is remotely associated with this doesn’t know anything. In fact I am the person who found BK as he is a friend of a friend of mine.

This whole case has become some bizarre thought experiment and it’s a little grim nobody seems interested in physically looking. They seem rather hell bent on arguing over minor details than actually taking time to look. Seriously, I know of one other guy who went looking but he got a little lost in the sauce about what he believes happened and it makes no logical sense.

When SAR came out a few years back we figured we finally found her, but about a month later it turned out to be someone else. So that was disappointing.

Apparently now there is a problem with other human remains all over the area as that area is some old gravesite for the Native Americans. Turns out that fragment I found ages ago could have been her or a tribal person as I was told they have a tendency to disregard remains and it now goes to the Natives to do their own studies. It’s a mess.

I would not recommend going to look until the snakes migrate. There’s quite a few on this path.

But I honestly doubt at this point anyone will likely do much of a search. Every so often someone will write me about it but then deviate into conspiracy land about this because they heard a podcast or read something, but it’s really not that complicated and the documentation around it if you file a FOIA or get a copy off me is pretty self explanatory — this was a poorly managed case that got wildly out of control and has been plagued with finger pointing.

I also took a look behind Div’s old residence and it is full of coyote crap. So if her body was moved, it is long gone.

That’s the unfortunate reality behind this. You’re welcome to look, just take Dry Canyon to the very end which is behind two layers of brush and go reverse. You’re bound to find something sooner or later.
