Das Forensikteam kommt zu dem Schluss (

The area where this is supposed to have taken place, simply is not an area where you can get lost. Anyone who is suggesting the girls lost their way and claiming this to be an actual possibility, has simply never physically been on the trail itself.Man geht also davon aus, dass man sich in diesem Gebiet nicht verirren kann. Stattdessen wird angenommen, dass die beiden abgestürzt sind:
The option which remains is a fatal accident possibly caused by an unfortunate crash. Especially the last part of descending the Pianista trail seems to have all the geographical conditions to suggest this is in fact a possible cause. In the event of crashing down these slopes, the victim or victims will find themselves in one of the riverbeds which river ultimately leads to the Culebra river. Circumstances down the riverbeds are similar to those found on the pictures retrieved from the digital camera. A fatal crash is also a conclusion which can be supported by the results of the investigations on discovered remains.
Crashing down a slope in this area would have easily covered a difference in hight up to about 30 to 40 meters, which increases the chances of severe injuries. Das hieße also, sie wären am 1. April abgestürzt, wahrscheinlich mit schweren Verletzungen liegengeblieben. Am 11. April lebt zumindest eine noch. Ist das realistisch? Kann man sowas 10 Tage überleben? Mit leichten Verletzungen und ausreichend Wasser sicher. Aber nach einem 30-40 Meter Sturz?
