Julie Cunningham was 26 and living in Vail, Colorado, in the winter of 1975. She worked at a local sporting goods store and as a part-time ski instructor. On the evening of March 15 she left her Apollo Park apartment after a brief phone call with her mother to meet her roommate at a nearby tavern, dressed in a brown suede jacket, blue jeans, a ski cap, and boots, and never arrived.

She was reported missing on March 21. Years later Ted Bundy, while on death row in Florida, confessed to abducting and murdering Julie, saying he lured her by pretending to be injured to get help carrying his ski boots, rendered her unconscious, drove about 80 miles west of Vail, and buried her in a shallow grave near Rifle, Colorado. Extensive searches of the area described by Bundy have not produced her remains. The Vail Police Department says they are fairly certain what happened but Julie remains officially listed as a missing person.

Did anyone in the Vail area in March 1975 ever see Julie that evening or notice an unfamiliar car near Apollo Park or along the route toward Rifle?
