There were a number of us hikers on that thread who joined WS specifically because of this case. True, some of us are "newbies" with limited understanding of this forum's basics and have now been enlightened... to some degree.
I joined websleuths specifically because of this case. I'm a hiker, tho' not an AT through hiker. (I've hiked the AT in PA and VA, not as far south as GA).
It was a combination of the hiking (I do a LOT of hiking in the Apalachicola Nat'l forest - mostly further east or south of where Cheryl was found) and the fact that I live about a mile from where her car was found that was such a trigger for me. There but for the grace of god...
I really connected with Meredith because I hike by myself all the time... alone, female...
I hadn't meant to get off track... I see it is quite easy to do (Heck, I'm off topic posting this, aren't I?) Newbie-itis. Thread hijacking? sorry.
I think if somebody does find more information in any of the trail journals it would be really interesting to read. I was blown away by the amount of information that folks pulled from trail journals! Perhaps a new thread, if this one is too long... But I do think there should be someplace to post it, if any more is out there.
