IMO, there is no plausible scenario in which Maura could have become lost in the woods. Not one person who has ever searched the area, professionals, LE, and others esp in the first few weeks, could NOT find a single track or anything leading off the road for miles....It was winter. Here is what evidence of someone walking in snow looks like.....

Since there was less than 5m between when Faith and the bus driver SAW the Saturn's driver and help arrived, and Maura could run a 5m mile, then she could not have gone further than a mile from the scene as E-vehicles would have spotted her. She never could have made it 10 miles out, because there were numerous and multiple people coming in both directions, and never saw anyone out on the roads within the timeframe.

Since this is a winding and dark, dangerous road in winter, that I have traveled many many times, anyone seen on it at night in WINTER would have stuck out as extremely odd. No one has seen this (besides RF's dubious account). She was not hopping into the woods every time a vehicle went by, doing multiple jumps, as there would be even MORE evidence of someone doing this....Here is what that would look like to trackers.......

There were no signs of anyone building any shelters anywhere around the area also, as it would have left MOUNDS of evidence behind, esp with everyone knowing a missing person was out there somewhere......

New Hampshire Fish and Game Lt. Todd Bogardus even made the statement that there was NOTHING of any evidence found. He said it was the BEST possible time to search for ANY signs of someone "heading off" into 1-2 foot snow drifts off the road. ZERO evidence. Many people from different parts of the country are unfamiliar with New England snow and snowdrifts. Even a small bird can be tracked under these conditions.

Also, going down a steep embankment, whether intentional, drunk, concussion, or otherwise would have extreme evidence of occurring. None of this was ever found.

Everyone can agree Maura weighed about 120lbs more than a bird. No one can get OUT of that area without leaving a track behind. Then add in, being seen by neighbors or a driver. The odds of ALL these occurring at the same time are infinitesimal.....

Definition of infinitesimal

1 : immeasurably or incalculably small an infinitesimal difference 2 : taking on values arbitrarily close to but greater than zero

It has since been determined that the car was drivable on scene, which makes it less likely to outrun a police vehicle by yourself. It was stated once that a plane crashed in 1942 in this story, but not found for a very long time...

However, this object was flying and crashed, and not leaving a trail through the winter woods for miles and miles. It was also traveling very very fast, so it was extremely harder to track, esp without today's technology. Once radar was lost, it could be in hundreds of square miles.

Last topic, there has not been one 100% identifiable position that Maura was in the Saturn at the WB corner. This is not a conspiracy, this is a fact. No one ID'd her, and no one in that area knew her. Searching in dangerous areas near this spot, though noble, could prove to be fruitless when there hasn't been confirmation that it WAS Maura, and she that she escaped the area in mere minutes without a track or a sighting.

At least on this topic, most professionals who searched, have agreed that there was not ONE sign of any of that type of activity. This is also a timeline issue as well, as there hasn't been any person yet who can run the 5 mile in under a 4 minutes, in order for them to get outside of the immediate search area, before help and a boatload of others arrived on scene.....
