The decomposed bodies of a Colorado boy, his mom and his aunt were found almost a year after they said goodbye to relatives.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The three former Colorado Springs residents found dead at acampsite were attempting to live “off the grid” — namely, to get as far from civilization as possible, according to a relative who knew them well.
Trevala Jara, Rebecca and Christine’s stepsister, said the two women told her of their plans last year. In early August, a couple of days before they set off for Gunnison, the Vance sisters stopped by Jara’s home in Security to drop off some family possessions and “to say goodbye,” Jara said. While they were there, Jara and her husband, Tommy, attempted to talk them out of leaving.The campers told no one but Jara and her husband what they were planning to do. “But they wouldn’t tell us where they were going,” she said.
“You can’t go on the internet and watch videos on how to live off the grid, and then actually do it, if you have no experience,” Jara said. “You just can’t do that. They died of starvation because they weren’t prepared.”
