Investigators are questioning story of hiker found, say statements " don't add up ". They found Holly Coutier,(someone saw her hammock and reported it ) after 12 days . She was 1/2 mile off trail and where a shuttle dropped her off. Her sister said she fasted for a couple days before she left. She was near a river but the water was toxic and non potable which she was aware of. Her sister said she became disoriented and hit her head on a tree. So let's sum up , 15 days or more without food, 12 days without water, 1/2 mile off trail in the main part of the canyon where 1,000's of people walked by in those 12 days.
I believe inchworm was 1/2 mile or less off trail but much different terrain.

I Googled longest person lived without water and a austrian man went without water for 18 days after accidentally being left in a holding cell In 1979.

The family gofundme has raised $12,000 and they say it will go to rescue efforts, medical and "therapy costs " oh my !

And she walked out on her own.
