    CNN.com has a whole interview article about Inchworm's missing. Although the news is frightening, it also confirms that she is well stocked with what she needs and that she is a veteran AT backpacker with good sense. It lists the other hikers whom she might have encountered before she got off trail. The husband who was to meet her for resupply is interviewed as he awaits her arrival days late. It contains an interview of a hiker about conditions that day as well as a photo of those conditions. It mentions other trails that intersect which she might have accidentally followed. Don't we all relate to that! God be with her.

    Wow... Brentwood is right down the road from me. It's also where the "Nashville" REI is. I sure hope they find this lady all right.

    If you have any information to share with Maine Game Wardens and searchers associated with Maine Association of Search and Rescue (MASAR)........ Please note that there seems to be an intermittent problem with the phone number(s).

    It's probably best to call the numbers if you can. I was able to successfully get through on the 800# earlier today without any problem. However, at times before and after my own call, some folks have reported experiencing problems with the phone numbers, including getting out of service messages. So if you are trying to share information and can not get through, another possible contact point is the Facebook Page for the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife.
    https://www.facebook.com/mainefishwildlife Updates on the search are posted there also.

    i was at the lean-to sunday night w/ inchworm, and have shared my info w/ maine detectives. inchworm is well-prepared and very experienced, i'm surely hoping & praying for a good outcome in this.

    i'm home now, hiked 252 miles SOBO from katahdin, an amazing hike! met lots of wonderful hikers, like inchworm.

    The phone number that they sent out on the release has a typo. It should read 207-624-7076(not 6076). Also, Koda's post that she has been found is incorrect (as of 3pm Sunday). They found Janet Post, not Gerry Largay. Please keep spreading the word until she is found.

    Also, as an update, they found hiker Crunchmaster and have now determined that she is most likely in a 4 mile area (versus the original 21 miles). They are going to fan out from the trail to see if she may have had an injury or medical issue when she ma have stepped off to attend to business. They have dogs and horses, plus ATV's and over a hundred people searching and hopefully they'll find her today.

    There was a typo on the 207 number. THe proper number to call is 207-624-7076 (not 6076). As of 3pm she still has not been found. (friend of Gerry's)
