That story just keeps on giving. Really mysterious, possibly all just a mix of coincidence and speculation due to lack of evidence, but great source for a fictional story

Holy creepers. The wiki is horrifying. Your movie script is set, just don't have the helicopter show up until after the unwinding of the horror is complete, maybe throw in a caretaker or local perp still active in the area.
Still missing mans belongings stuffed in a tree with a female (maybe?) skeleton found near the sign, man deemed far to weak to have built the sign. No tools found, a recording of a man screaming for help, and the felled birch tree sign made of logs thats estimated to have taken 2 days to build. Sign was estiamted to be built 2 yrs before.
Better than most horror movies plots.
The body that was found was of another missing person, but he didn't have the strength to create the sign, or the tools to do so.
Meaning at least one unknown person came to grief in that area.
It had to have been him, it's too coincidental otherwise. They believed it possible until they checked his remains and said he was too weak but he may not have always been, he could have died months after making the sign too
Yeah that's way more plausible than there being another person
How did this person cut down the trees though?
Maybe the tool just wasn't found? The area was described as a kind of trap that is difficult to get out of. So where could this other person have gone?
