On Wednesday morning, three teams approached the area from different directions, and just after 11 a.m. one of them found Sotelo’s body near the headwaters of Lafayette Brook, three-quarters of a mile from the trail.
Kneeland believes that Sotelo lost the trail as the wind and snow started blowing and died trying to get out of those conditions. “I’m not sure we’ll ever really know the true story,” Kneeland said.
According to Kneeland, Sotelo wasn’t carrying any of the essentials that officials recommend for day hikes, even in the summer. No map, compass or matches. No flashlight or headlamp, though her parents said she used her phone as a light and had a backup battery pack.
In her pack, she had granola bars, a banana and water that likely froze very early on, Kneeland said. She wore long underwear but only light pants and a jacket. She had heated gloves and a neck warmer but no hat. Her shoes were for trail running or trekking rather than insulated boots that are recommended for winter.

"However, my criticism had substance. I consider Peter Hotez's ethics to be radical and counterproductive. Journals like Nature and The Lancet let him publish any nonsense without even questioning his statements. Of course, I cannot prove corruption, but it is evident, as the following examples show." -Dr. Simon
