Lost Her Bearings
Gerry had planned to spend one night at the Spaulding Mountain Lean-to and hike to where the trail met Route 27. However, she had to urinate and walked into the forest to find a tree. When she finished, she realized she was way too deep in the forest and couldn’t remember how to get back to the trail!
Directionally Challenged and Flustered
By 11 a.m., she was lost in the woods. Jane had said that she’d taken wrong turns before and got combative and flustered. Now, though, Gerry was alone. She texted her husband at 11:01 to say she was lost. George never received the message because there was no signal.
