So I am guessing either the phone has no GPS locator or it was turned off on the phone. But I would think if it stood still for a few hours, (why are we 3 wks later hearing this-or was that done for a reason?) can't they narrow it down to a smaller area?
What time did the group leave? Makes you wonder when the cameras captured them leaving vs that time...Have their phones been pinged?
Either way great info! Thanks Stillwatersc!
It seems like I read somewhere that the cell phone towers cover a 5-7 square mile radius (it may have been even larger) and that is as narrow of an area as they can get.
Very interesting that the cell phone was still for several hours - doesn't sound good.
