The sunglasses are on AL not Brittanee in that one also.

After a week-long search for Brittanee Drexel involving several law enforcement agencies, officials may have a clue to her whereabouts.

A pair of sunglasses, resembling those that the then-17-year-old wore in a picture taken with friends on April 26, were found Monday in an area near the Santee River in Georgetown County, said Monica Caison, founder of the Community United Effort Center for Missing Persons.

I don't know why it says her pic was taken 4/26 when we all know she disappeared 4/25. Typo, I suppose.

There is another post by the same person that also has small pictures. I can't tell if Brittanee's sunglasses are the same kind as AL's:

I think I saw the pic all the way to the right of chili fries last link

The downside is that if they were exposed to heavy rains DNA could probably be washed away from the hard surfaces of sunglasses.

Rochestergirl · Dec 11, 2009

The pic online of them in the bag didn't look to be in too bad of condition makes me wonder if they are really Brits?

Autumndreams · Dec 12, 2009

Did anyone happen to save this image in its full size??? Also does anyone know how far from where the glasses were found to where they were doing the last big search??

dearmont · Dec 12, 2009

This photo doesn't show Brittanee wearing sunglasses, but does show in the lower right corner that they had male companions - wonder who took these photos?

Drexel search resumes after sunglasses found in North Santee
Published Saturday, December 12, 2009 6:27 AM

A pair of sunglasses — the same kind often worn by a New York 17-year-old who has been missing for several months — led to a new search near the Georgetown-Charleston County line last week.

Brittanee Drexel — last seen in Myrtle Beach in April — was photographed in the days before her disappearance wearing sunglasses.

A pair of very similar sunglasses was found last Monday by a group of people walking near the Santee River, according to Monica Caison, founder of the Community United Effort Center for Missing Persons

No, but this picture does:

And the pictures were in JO's FB album.

A good ways. I posted it like this because I did not want to blow the margins and google maps is not being very nice.

it was the guys on the trip with them phil O and Ugar (i think that spellings right). If you look at the other pic (with only AL wearing the glasses) check out the piles of clothes sunglasses on the ground. Yellow mens glasses. Then their is a pic on the link (on this page) with phil wearing the yellow mens glasses.

Hey Rose

What is public access like into that part of the area they are searching? Can just anyone make their way there or would this be a place like mainly associated with locals or someone previously from that area? Any idea? Access roads - can you use them easily with a regular vehicle or would this require 4-wheel drive or some type of all terrain vehicle?

How does one enter this area? Able to drive right in or is there a pay booth at the entrance (like in other national park areas)? If yes, is it a staffed booth or honor system? Or is there a way to "bypass" this? Designated camping areas?

If this is a "paid" area is it open year round?

Anything you could add about the area they are searching would be most welcomed!

Hey MBLOVER I think (could be wrong) that it is mostly newyorkers who have to pay to enter parks (just another tax by our overtaxed state LOL) most states I think don't. JMO

Rose- is this the same area the first search was at last May? I remember the Francis National Forest. I thought it was supposedly dangerous with wild animals etc. Do people normally camp there? Also, is it mostly accessed by boat
