She Left a Note Pointing Up-Found Alive, No Footprints Below

Cold and baffling: a sealed orange bivouac sack, a full water bottle, an energy bar and a pencil note timestamped 11:20 - all sitting on a granite shelf with unbroken snow in every direction. How did a meticulous 38-year-old GIS technician named Laura Powell leave gear at 9,100 feet with no footprints below, and why did her note tell searchers to look above the couloir?

In this episode, we present the sequence of events from Laura Powell’s last known phone call through the twelve-day Kessler Range search, describing the scene found by Ruth Bowers, the initial field evidence, and the constraints that kept teams from reaching the upper boulder fields. What do the single boot print, a used hand-warmer, and the dogs quitting at the creek tell us about where Laura went?

Date: March 15-March 23
Location: Kessler Range, granite shelf at 9,100 feet
Status: Found alive after nine days alone in the cold

- An orange bivouac sack was found sealed and unused on a flat rock shelf with no surrounding footprints.
- A folded pencil-written note in a zip-lock bag was timestamped 11:20 and instructed searchers to look above the couloir.
- Laura’s last outgoing phone call was to her sister on March 14 at 15:47 and lasted nine minutes.
