For those looking for local terrain info etc:
She was believed to have been headed to North Crestone Lake, a snow-melt basin at over 12k feet, situated central to multiple popular '14ers'.
From her campsite at about 8500ft, it would be a 5 mile hike with 4k feet of elevation gain, on single-track. The trail is sometimes very steep and often with steep drop-offs on one or both sides.
We have 2 different (contradictory) accounts of how she had been equipped: The Sheriff and some witnesses say she had a pack and sleeping bag etc. Another witness account claims to have seen her about 3 miles up the trail with *no gear* and a phone with a dead battery.
Thank you for the details. I really hope she is found.
