Couple Vanished on Appalachian Trail — 2 Years Later Found in Toxic Shelter, Acting Insane

Couple Vanished on Appalachian Trail — 2 Years Later Found in Toxic Shelter, Acting Insane In August of twenty sixteen, thirty-two-year-old Natalie Cross and her husband, thirty-three-year-old Andrew Cross, set out on what should have been a five-day backpacking adventure through the stunning backcountry of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, straddling the border between Tennessee and North Carolina. The couple, both experienced hikers from Asheville, North Carolina, had meticulously planned their route along a remote section of the Appalachian Trail. They carried all the necessary gear, filed their itinerary with park rangers, and told family they'd be back by August twenty-first. But August twenty-first came and went. No phone call. No text message. Their silver Honda CR-V sat abandoned in the Clingmans Dome parking area, collecting dust and raising questions. By August twenty-third, a full-scale search operation was underway. Helicopters scanned the ridgelines. Search dogs combed the trails. Dozens of volunteers hiked through dense forest and across steep mountain slopes, calling their names into the wilderness. Nothing. Not a single trace. For thirty-one months, Natalie and Andrew Cross simply... vanished. Then, in November of twenty eighteen, a solo hiker exploring an off-trail area stumbled upon something that would shock everyone involved in the case. He found them. Alive. But what he discovered in that remote corner of the Smokies wasn't a heartwarming rescue story. It was something far more disturbing. Because Natalie and Andrew Cross weren't just lost. They were living in an abandoned structure, miles from any marked trail, filthy, malnourished, and acting... completely insane. They spoke in fragmented sentences. They flinched at daylight. They refused to leave. And when rescuers finally got them to safety, the couple couldn't explain what had happened, or why they'd stayed hidden for nearly three years while the world searched for them. This is the story of two people who walked into the mountains and nearly lost their minds. A story of isolation, fear, and the terrifying fragility of the human psyche when pushed beyond its limits.
