It’s also odd that ten $100 bills (if we can believe the reports) were found in one location. Wouldn’t bills be scattered far and wide? If not from a plane crash, what about the wind?
I’ve been through that country many times on 395 and many years ago fished Convict, June and Mammoth lakes, it’s really rough mountainous country.
I would think the bills had to be in a wallet or something else to have not been blown six ways to Sunday.
That being just out of the original search area is logical because he wasn’t supposed to be going into the Sierras, as I recall. I would bet they’ll find the wreckage somewhere in the area.
