  • She Moved Four Miles: How a Runner Outsmarted a Desert Search

    She Moved Four Miles: How a Runner Outsmarted a Desert Search
    Aug 19 2026
    She Moved Four Miles: How a Runner Outsmarted a Desert Search

    A racing bib, four safety pins, and a brown smear of blood hung six feet up a creosote bush-placed twelve feet from the road and three miles west of the official search area. The missing runner, Rebecca Clark, left three deliberate signals and survived nine days with a broken ankle, but why did every team read them wrong? What single misread shifted the search away from where she actually waited?

    In this episode, we follow the sequence of events from Rebecca's last GPS ping to the moment her signals were finally discovered. You will hear how her training, field skills, and small survival actions shaped nine days in the Mojave-and ask whether standard search protocols missed the one clue that mattered most.

    Person: Rebecca Clark
    Age: 26
    Event: Ridgecrest Endurance Marathon
    Date: September 5, 2011
    Injury: lateral malleolus fracture (right ankle)

    - Rebecca left the marked course at mile 19 and stepped 22 degrees northwest off the route at approximately 2:00 PM on September 5, 2011.
    - Her GPS watch sent its last location ping at 2:17 PM, two miles northeast of the Caldera Ridge junction.
    - She traveled approximately four miles west-northwest from that last GPS ping before stopping beside a sandstone shelf.
    - She had roughly 12 ounces of water, two gel packets, a space blanket, a headlamp, a notebook, and a pen when stranded.
    - On the afternoon of September 6 she tied six inches of orange flagging tape ankle-high to a creosote branch; it was found by Walt Ybarra on September 8.

  • The Ice Axe, the Wrong Side of the Mountain: 5 Days Alone

    The Ice Axe, the Wrong Side of the Mountain: 5 Days Alone

    The Ice Axe, the Wrong Side of the Mountain: 5 Days Alone

    Cold, deliberate signals can be the difference between rescue and oblivion: an ice axe stood perfectly vertical at 7,000 feet with a serial number that tied it to a missing climber, but the search went to the wrong side of the mountain - how did one ten-second decision create a five-day gap between being seen and being saved?

    In this episode, we tell the sequence of events over five days in the Ashford Range, from the discovery of the axe on August 9, 2011 to the realization that the search teams were searching the wrong side, and explore how Beverly Hunt’s private plan diverged from what others were told and where she actually crawled-what did her sketched route conceal?

    Person: Beverly Hunt
    Date: August 9, 2011
    Location: Ashford Range, eastern face talus field at 7,000 feet
    Status: Missing (reported August 8, 2011)
    Event: Ice axe found upright with serial number matching owner

    - At 7:42 AM on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, Pamela Stevens’ dog stopped at an ice axe planted blade-down in a crack between granite slabs.
    - The axe was photographed in place at 9:15 AM by Todd Aberle, then lifted and checked beneath the collar to reveal a serial number.
    - By 10:00 AM the axe serial number identified the owner as 48-year-old Beverly Hunt, reported missing the day before.
    - Beverly Hunt had sent a text on the evening of Friday, August 5 saying she would be back Saturday and see Walt Ingram Tuesday, but she did not return and a missing person report was filed on Monday, August 8 at 11:00 AM.
    - Beverly had a hand-drawn sketch of an unnamed, unmapped route folded in her shirt pocket and had left the Crestline topographic map inside her pack.

  • Dry Tide Chart, Wrong Direction: How Four Vanished From Bent Cape

    Dry Tide Chart, Wrong Direction: How Four Vanished From Bent Cape
    Aug 17 2026
    Dry Tide Chart, Wrong Direction: How Four Vanished From Bent Cape

    Fear tightens when a life raft turns up miles inland with a dry tide chart marked "200 ft, 270°" - a notation that could only have been written before a boat ran itself onto rocks. A two-word radio transmission sent search teams the wrong way across ninety square miles; why did a seasoned crew run hard toward shore in worsening seas, and what does a dry chart in an estuary reveal about those last hours?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from a July 7 departure across the Dellport bar to the discovery of a wrecked hull at Bent Cape and a flotation vest in Alder Slough, and we lay out the physical clues that reshape where and how the search should have been conducted. Which single entry in a waterproofed fuel log rewrote the search grid and pointed straight to a grounded vessel?

    Person: Douglas Favre
    Date: July 7 (departure) and July 14 (vest found)
    Location: Bent Cape; Alder Slough; Dellport bar
    Event: Two-word radio transmission; discovery of flotation vest and tide chart
    Status: One dead, one missing, one clinging to life, one aboard wrecked hull

    - The flotation vest recovered July 14 contained a tide chart showing a penciled depth of 200 feet and a bearing of 270°.
    - Alder Slough's deepest point is barely 12 feet, yet the vest arrived there after traveling 11 miles from the Mira Jean's position.
    - The Mira Jean crossed the Dellport bar at approximately 6:40 a.m. and was running southwest toward grounds 18 miles offshore.
    - Phil Navarro's green-cover fuel log shows engines at near full throttle for 60 to 90 minutes between noon and the last radio transmission at 6:47 p.m.
    - Search teams were focused on a 90-square-mile ocean grid centered on a noon position in 210-foot water while the vessel was actually grounded in 80-90 foot water near Bent Cape.
