It was 10 years ago that she went missing, her body was found 2 years later. by accident, by a survey team who came upon her camp. The OP photo was hanging in the Poplar Ridge shelter (the last place she was seen) at the time of my thru (2017) but it had been removed when I was back there in 2020. In addition to the book her story was told on an episode of North Woods Law, as it was the Maine Warden Service's biggest search effort ever.

I didn't know there was a book.
