(Press Release) Jessica Garcia, an employee of DNC Parks & Resorts at Yosemite, Inc., has been located alive after she was reported missing when she did not show up for work at the Wawona Hotel on Sunday, October 7, 2012. Garcia was found at about 1:00 p.m. Tuesday afternoon by a member of the Yosemite National Park Search and Rescue Team less than two miles up the South Fork Drainage of the Merced River in the southern portion of Yosemite National Park. She was hiking off-trail in this rugged area of the park. She will be transported to a local hospital for a medical evaluation"
Odd. If that "less than 2 miles" is measured from Wawona, she wasn't exactly in the back country. Residences and Camp Wawona are farther up the drainage than that.
