People don't think trail running be like it is, but it do.
There was a lady who went trail running up a busy canyon here. She broke her leg in a small side canyon and wasn't found until 8 months later. She was a pile of bones by then, of course. Cell phones make people think they can go places they really shouldn't go. |

That area of "up country" Maui is pretty wooded and steep. She also fractured her tibia limiting her movements.
Eller was found with a broken leg and a torn meniscus in her knee, along with sunburn and scrapes. She was also about 20 pounds underweight, according to one of the rescuers who spoke to KHON2. My grandfather saw some kids hiking up in that same area in the late 1930's while he was working clearing trees. All 4 got lost and died from exposure with some food still tied to their waists. This was in the winter time though. |

I know this girl. Our group of friends have been praying hard for her safe return. Thank God they found her. For those of you mouth-breathers that have obviously never been off the beaten path in Maui, there are tons of places that if you fell, you would not be climbing out on your own. Especially if you were injured. |

I grew up in Maryland, hiked up Sugarloaf Mountain a few times, and have cut down lots of brush with a machete, so I guess that makes me an expert on this particular case. From what I can gather, she was on a whorecation, trying to get enough money to get out of the Itty Bitty Titty Committee and one of her john's got tired of her and dumped her on the side of the road after 10 days of bondage. Of course I should add that I haven't even read a news link about this, just this thread, but that's my expert opinion.....

Watched the news last night.
She said she hiked till midnight the first night. Oh she had NV gear? Nope. Fucking retard When she woke up, she said she was disoriented, so she started hiking again. Fucking panicked retard. She spent the better part of two weeks wandering around because she completely lost any awareness of her situation. Never would have happened if she had sat down and started thinking instead of freaking out. |

Grew up on O'ahu, hiked a lot and hunted pigs, been off-trail more than on following pua'a tracks. A lot of that country is steep and slippery.
I've hiked at night too, it's pretty amazing. Different place at night for sure. But going out for a run, until midnight, with no CLUE what she was doing, then hiking more in the dark when she was disoriented... Do you want to get lost? Because that's how you get lost. |

I am a climber, I climb out. I've seen canyons with waterfalls where if you get down the upper falls (you won't get back up fighting the water), the lower falls is too high to traverse, and the walls are too steep to climb without technical gear...especially with a broken leg. |

The centipedes make up for the lack of snakes. I liked upcountry Maui alot, Makawao Steak House was great food and there was a bar that had comedy shows up on the corner. The area between the farming community and the coast to the North is nearly impenetrable jungle. My favorite thing from that area is the Thompsons Chameleon. A prehistoric lizard with a tongue as long as his body sporting 3 horns and a prehensile tail. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
So did she plan this or was she just incompetent. What I find strange in the simply lost scenario that she was supposedly a local and familiar with the trail and water falls in the region. So she should have known that going down the mountain south or west would get her to civilization within one mile from the farthest point in the trail (and that's going the longest way, which is from the north east corner of the trail past the south east corner, the shortest distance was just 130 yards. Instead she ventured in the opposite direction, north east, where she could have kept going twice the distance before hitting the coast and a road. OTOH navigation around the whole area appears to be a huge mess with only locals knowing anything and even Google Maps not knowing most of the locations they give in news reports, including 3 different spellings for probably the same thing. You just can't find the place where she was found on the map with the details given by the police department, the rescuers or the family. Most folks posting in Facebook only know the location of the “base camp” (where the volunteer search parties are staying) and even that only vaguely. If I had to organize a search of her past stranded location just based on news report descriptions (and not coordinates which haven't been released), I would be looking at an A box of about 1 x 1 mile. I mean, she was found on a fucking stream bed, but nobody has been able to even name the stream! |

LOL with all the info that has come out, there's still doubt this was the real thing? The area she was in had a lot of pine trees and looked wide open and spacious, she was probably wandering around enjoying the beauty and got lost. She fell down a cliff and fractured her leg. She survived on water from streams (there's a lot of water on Hawaii
 ) and the local flora (it is paradise, after all). Sometimes a damn cigar is just a cigar.

In the example I posted above, the woman (who was in drug rehab at the time, so everyone assumed she had relapsed and was off on a bender) went for a run up one of the canyons by herself. For some strange reason she decided to turn up a small, rugged side canyon, fell and broke her leg, and then was filled with the terrible realization she was stuck there and no one knew where she was. It was without a doubt a horrible, painful way to die. I personally blame cell phones for the increase in wilderness stupidity. People think that because they have 100% coverage in the city that automatically translates into 100% coverage in the mountains. In the canyons along the Wasatch Front you can lose cell coverage even though you are a few miles away from downtown Salt Lake City. If you are depending on your phone's GPS to navigate, or if you are expecting to be able to call 911 if you fall and break your leg, then you're going to be seriously disappointed when they don't work. And that can mean death. |
