Tiffany Slaton, a 28-year-old from Georgia, survived 24 days in the Sierra Nevada mountains after a solo camping trip went awry. Enduring snowstorms, an avalanche, and injuries, she foraged for food and maintained her mental health through journaling.

Tiffany Slaton had no contact with her parents. She had gone missing during a hike in the snowy Sierra Nevada mountains.

The owner of the cabin where Tiffany Stanton was found had left the doors unlocked in case hikers like her needed refuge.
