Human remains that may belong to a missing California woman who attended the countercultural Rainbow Gathering have been found in a Washington forest, officials said Monday.
Marie Hanson, 54, of Lake Tahoe, disappeared in July after attending the event in Gifford Pinchot National Forest. The countercultural event is held each year in a different national forest.
The Skamania County Sheriff’s Office released a statement Monday saying searchers had found skeletal remains and jewelry Sunday afternoon in the area where Hanson had disappeared.
Officials were still combing the area Monday for evidence.
