For those looking for local terrain info etc:

She was believed to have been headed to North Crestone Lake, a snow-melt basin at over 12k feet, situated central to multiple popular '14ers'.

From her campsite at about 8500ft, it would be a 5 mile hike with 4k feet of elevation gain, on single-track. The trail is sometimes very steep and often with steep drop-offs on one or both sides.

We have 2 different (contradictory) accounts of how she had been equipped: The Sheriff and some witnesses say she had a pack and sleeping bag etc. Another witness account claims to have seen her about 3 miles up the trail with *no gear* and a phone with a dead battery.

have you seen the local coverage noting the sheriff’s office and news outlets still list her as missing and say she may have headed up to north crestone lake? there’s been repeated reporting about the Love Has Won connection and no public resolution or arrest has been reported, so the case still appears open and unresolved dont know if SAR logs add any more detail about those contradictory gear sightings.

Thank you for the details. I really hope she is found.

Jenifer Ann Driver, 52, also known by the spiritual name Mountain Sun, was last seen in the North Crestone Campground area of Crestone, Colorado on or around October 8, 2021. Initially reported missing from the Boulder area, she was thought to have been camping and may have set out toward North Crestone Lake with a backpack, a sleeping bag, and a blue tent. Jenifer was described as 5 feet 4 inches tall, about 170 pounds, with gray shaved hair, brown eyes, and a preference for baggy, comfortable clothing.

The Saguache County Sheriff’s Office conducted extensive searches, including ground teams and helicopter patrols, but found no trace of her or her belongings. She had been camping with a woman linked to the Love Has Won group; that woman later told investigators they parted ways after being told to move campsites and had no further contact. Friends and associates reported Jenifer had expressed intentions of ending her life, and a social media message said she planned to leave her body and go to her star system at the end of September. The sheriff said the disappearance seemed possibly self-inflicted, but no definitive evidence explaining what happened has been found and the investigation remains open.

Does anyone who was in the Crestone area that autumn of 2021 remember seeing Jenifer or her campsite?
