I was searching for info about serial killer William Floyd Zamastil after seeing he was suspected in a cold case mentioned in another thread and in the process found this article about Deborah. I don't believe she has a WS thread, so bringing her here. (Zamastil is mentioned in this recent article about Deborah's case, too, but it seems that a firm link has never been found.)
ETA: If you visit the link, be sure not to miss the righthand sidebar report about Deborah's known travels on her trip -- sounds like she at least got to do some of the things she planned. So sad that she must have met her killer along the way...
As I read things from this article, it seems some of her belongings were found in California but it is felt she never made it there herself (alive and/or free, anyway).

Deborah Carrick, 21, was traveling west from Maryland to California for a friend’s wedding. On the way, she wanted to visit national parks. She planned to ride the bus and hitchhike. When she returned, she planned to enlist in the U.S. Air Force.
She never made it to California.
Her body was found Sept. 9, 1975, off Highway 64 between Cameron and Grand Canyon National Park. She died from blunt-force trauma to the head....
