## Resource

Months after the five friends disappeared, investigators made a haunting discovery: one man was found inside a remote Forest Service trailer stocked with food, fuel, warm clothing, and supplies that could have kept someone alive for months. So why wasn't it enough? Why was the heat never turned on? And what happened to the fifth man, whose body has never been found?Author and archival researcher Tony Wright returns to examine the evidence, overlooked investigative mistakes, and the theories that continue to fuel one of America's most shocking mysteries nearly 50 years later.
