概要
A brass-and-glass kerosene lantern burned steadily on the hood of a locked government pickup at 6:15 a.m. on July 17, 2011, with no authorized visitors at the trailhead for seven days - and the woman assigned to the tower had no memory of lighting it. What pulled Rebecca Thorpe down from a locked fire cab at 9,040 feet, carrying a personal lantern and leaving a cold mug of coffee inside?
In this episode, we follow the timeline from the first call to the trailhead to the search that led dogs and rescuers into a boulder field off-trail, and explore the evidence that suggests her mind was failing even as her body kept moving. How did deliberate actions like bringing her own lantern and photographing the same cottonwood tree for months fit with a disappearance that ended where scent simply stopped on sun-warmed granite?
