Description

In December 1946, 18-year-old Bennington College student Paula Jean Welden set out for a short hike on Vermont’s Long Trail. She was seen by motorists and hikers and then she was gone. Despite one of the largest searches in state history, no trace was ever found. Her case not only unsettled a community, but directly led to the creation of the Vermont State Police, and became part of the legend of the so-called Bennington Triangle.
