Notes de l’épisode
She Signed Out Twice - Found Alive Where Trails Vanish
Cold and precise: a woman signed the Brauer Lake trail register twice the morning she vanished, a dry gas-station receipt was found inside a boot pulled from a fast spring river, and search dogs tracked cleanly for 4.5 miles before the trail stopped on an open alpine flat - so how did she end up alive on the Fennick River thirty-one miles away? This episode brings the unnerving facts together and leaves one question: what route did she take where no trail, no footprints, and no map explain her movement?
In this episode, we go through the documented timeline, the search actions, and the field evidence exactly as recorded, and we follow the unanswered question of Linda Roberts's plan and the mountain's response that confounded searchers.
Person: Linda Roberts
Date: April 9-14, 2019
Location: Brauer Lake trailhead; Fenner Flat; Fennick River; Stanton Mills
Status: Found alive
- At 06:47 on April 9, 2019, Linda signed the Brauer Lake trail register listing Brauer Lake and a 6:00 PM return time.
- At 08:51 on April 9, 2019, exterior gas station footage showed Linda at the Stanton Mills gas station buying water, a granola bar, and three disposable rain ponchos.
- At 09:31 on April 9, 2019, Linda re-signed the same register; handwriting later confirmed as hers, with no destination listed and 44 minutes after the earlier entry.
- Tracking dogs Corvis (bloodhound) and Pike (Belgian Malinois) followed a clean trail north from the 09:31 register for 4.5 miles and then stopped at the center/north edge of Fenner Flat after circling for about 11 minutes.
- At 04:50 on April 14, 2019, Dale Brooks pulled a laced hiking boot from the Fennick River with a completely dry folded gas station receipt tucked in the inner heel.
