Here is the journal entry from "Crunchmaster" who was suppose to be the last person to see Gerry "Inchworm" Largay before she disappeared. He is a SOBO thru hiker. Apparently the cell phone reception was spotty on top of Lone Mountain. That might explain why "Inchworm's" call may not have gone through. Here is a quote from his journal entry written by "Happy" who posts for him. http://www.trailjournals.com/entry.cfm?id=426866
"Got a call from the Crunchmaster at 3:00 p.m. from on top of Lone Mountain, about 8 miles from where he camped on the South Branch of the Carrabassett River. Temperature was about 68 at about 3000 feet elevation and his feet were feeling better after new insoles and moleskin. He seemed in good spirits and walked while he talked to me. The connection was lost so I wasn't able to get much information. "
