She Vanished Three Miles Away - Her Bow Waited At The Cabin

She Vanished Three Miles Away - Her Bow Waited At The Cabin Ice-cold evidence: a compound bow, nocked with a carbon arrow and a broadhead, stood propped and frozen against a cabin propane meter while its owner was last seen more than three miles away in the opposite direction. How did her bow end up upright and intact at the cabin with no record of how it crossed that distance? In this episode, we follow the timeline from the morning a septic contractor found the bow to the search that spread across twelve thousand acres of Idaho backcountry, and we ask what really happened during the gap in Crystal Larsen’s memory that let her vanish and return missing gear and hours she cannot explain. Person: Crystal Larsen Age: 28 Date: February 19, 2024 Location: Dunmore Tract, Cavell County, Idaho Status: Missing memory for several hours after six days in the backcountry - Bow: compound bow, fully nocked with a carbon arrow and broadhead, string snapped and coiled against the riser, found upright against the cabin propane meter at 8:14 AM. - Distance: Crystal was last confirmed more than three miles from the cabin in the opposite direction from where the bow was found. - Time on land: Crystal had been on the Dunmore Tract since Friday (four days before the bow was found). - Cabin scene: sleeping bag on cot, thermos on table, half a granola bar on counter, gear bag in unlocked truck by woodpile; cabin door unlocked. - Track evidence: boot impressions under southern stand estimated no more than 48 hours old and orange flagging tape tied 30 yards north of the stand; canine scent trail moved north from the southern stand toward the drainage below the northern stand.
