Stephanie Womacks, 52, of Temple, Georgia, vanished from a campsite in the White Oak area of Table Rock State Park in Pickens County, South Carolina, on the evening of March 3, 2025. Her husband left the campground about 5:00 p.m. to get supplies; witnesses saw Stephanie alone at the campsite around 6:00 p.m. and did not see her leave. Her walking stick and blanket were missing from the site.
Search teams mounted a large-scale operation across the park and nearby Greenville Watershed, using K9s, drones, a SLED helicopter and a dive team with sonar for Pinnacle Lake. Dozens of responders at times — nearly 100 — searched rugged, mountainous terrain; weather sometimes forced pauses. Several of Stephanie’s personal items were later found in a remote, off-trail area of the park, focusing the search on a specific rugged zone. Authorities say they do not suspect foul play and the investigation remains open.
Stephanie Ann Womacks is described as a white female, 5 feet tall, about 115 pounds, with brown and partially gray hair and green eyes. She was believed to be wearing a brown GAP hoodie in pink lettering, blue jeans and black tennis shoes when she disappeared. Was anyone in the area that evening hiking, camping or boating who might have seen Stephanie or noticed someone off the marked trails?
