Comments

Puerta was killed in October, 2012.  The location here is on a beach on Chichagof Island but the precise location needs to be found. 

Description

After passers-by spotted an unattended skiff, they investigated and encountered a grizzly bear sow and two cubs. Alaska State troopers and Sitka Mountain rescue personnel then found evidence of a campsite and fire on the beach. There was evidence of a struggle, and upon following a trail of disturbed vegetation, they found Puerta's body, cached and partially eaten.[19]
