When the story broke that a missing female hiker had been found after nearly two weeks "lost" in Zion, there was also a GoFundMe set up by her family that was racking up the bucks. I thought I smelled a rat right away. I said something about my suspicions in another venue. I said I thought it was a GoFundMe scam. And, of course, most of the do-gooders shot me down. Turns out that the SAR folks there are VERY suspicious about this woman as well:

While I am glad she is found; I too when I read that given the time and her condition thought BS over the whole thing.

I thought it was suspicious when they said they found her hiking in heals and a dress, .

@friendofThundergod
Haha! I do believe the heels and a dress person is in another state!

Incidentally, I'm starting a go find me for when get lost in the Eagle Tails next weekend. I'll need lots of supplies, so please contribute.

Me too, and the odor hasn't dissipated.

Reminds me of an older story, guy got lost on his way to day hike Mt Lemmon I think it was, had to drink his own pee, was lost less than a mile or two of his car.

I saw 'from California'... THEN it made sense.

Some more new details, or what are purported to be details

Even though they now admit that she intended an extended stay rather than a dayhike, it still doesn't add up.
