The Notebook on the Roof: How Did It Get There?

A field notebook, dry and perfectly centered on the roof of a Subaru buried under eight inches of undisturbed snow, became the single baffling clue in a missing-person case that ended with a 28-year-old geologist found alive - and a detail no investigator can explain. How did a notebook stay dry on top of a car through twelve hours of snowfall with no footprints around it?

In this episode, you’ll hear the timeline from last contact at 4:52 p.m. through the discovery at 6:40 a.m., the habits that made Rhonda Schultz’s absence immediately alarming, and the on-the-ground observations that sent search teams into the Alderman Creek drainage - but left them with a question no meteorologist, geologist, or rescuer has solved: who could have placed that notebook on the roof?

Person: Rhonda Schultz
Date: February 11-14
Location: Alderman Creek drainage, Hatchett County, Idaho
Status: Found alive after two nights in the field
Search coordinator: Sherry Harris

- The Subaru was buried under eight inches of snow on the roof when found at 6:40 a.m, on February 14.
- Beverly Stroud photographed the notebook on the car before touching anything after eleven winters on Forest Service Road 11.
- Rhonda’s last text was timestamped 4:52 p.m. on February 11 saying she was heading back to the transect for one more look.
- Search coordinator Sherry Harris has led more than two hundred search operations in the Alderman Creek drainage.
- Boot prints followed a steady, controlled pace toward the talus field and then stopped abruptly at the talus edge.
