There are no ruleouts or updates added to Namus.

This lady was wearing "Bluish-green ''Just Fitz'' t-shirt, blue and green plaid ''South Mountain'' jacket (size 3X), blue denim ''Anchor'' jeans (no size, appear small)." No jewellery or other personal items located, but the remains were "found scattered on the surface of a mountainside in Duncan Canyon, at the 2,700 foot level, north of Fontana, California" so it's not clear if it's possible that personal items were scattered elsewhere and not retrieved, or she had none.

According to Doe Network 1430UFCA her teeth had no restorations and the PMI was 2-12 months. www.doenetwork.org/cases/software/uid-geo-us-females.html#california
