The Second Photo: What Appeared on Timber Notch in 90 Seconds

A perfectly ordinary disposable camera captured two photos of the same cliff face ninety seconds apart-one empty, the other showing a dark-coated figure standing 260 feet above the road on a ledge with no visible route. The image was developed at a Rexall photo counter where the technician and his manager were both stopped cold; what could appear on a granite wall in under two minutes with no signs of climbing gear?
In this episode, we present the sequence of events from a November morning in 2003 through the moment the prints were picked up, outlining the people, places, and evidence involved - and the single unanswered question that sent a retired civil engineer back to his atlas: how did that figure get there?
Person: Roy Padgett
Date: November 7, 2003 (photos taken) and November 9-10, 2003 (prints picked up and noticed)
Location: Timber Notch Pass overlook, Garnet Fork, eastern Sierra foothills
Age: Roy Padgett was 54; Judith Andrews was 15; Leon Tate was 22
Distance: Figure stood approximately 260 feet above the road cut
- Roy Padgett walked the same four-mile route at 6:45 a.m. roughly 3,200 times over eleven years.
- He had used a disposable Fuji camera with about six or seven frames left when he stopped at Timber Notch.
- The two relevant frames were taken about ninety seconds apart from the same position at the overlook.
- The Rexall photo technician, Leon Tate, had three years' experience and immediately sought manager Diane Koss after seeing the strip.
- The cliff face in the photos rises roughly 300 feet from the road cut, with the figure appearing on a ledge with no accessible route from the ground.
