El capitan is crumbling this week . It has A zodiac climbing route named in 74 by climbers with landmarks named devils knob , black tower , gray circle ,tied to ZK?. I cant understand why the park ranger that other rangers said acted strange at the time of the attacks ( the Cold Case Files host described as the 1st real suspect)and resembled the composites was not investigated further maybe by other than LE

Daveb, I am not understanding the post above? Who was the cold case file host referring to as the 1st real suspect? Who were the rangers talking about acting strange? Thanks for the information, I had no idea that there is a Zodiac climbing route at El Capitan? I very sure that I won't be going there to check it out LOL.

It was Bill Kurtis , hi Sandy In 2010 I watched CCF and Zodiac one came up he said after the Stine kill that " for a time the FBI thought they had there man" talked of 3 rangers calling cops on this other ranger ,saying they found him stalking perfectly normal hikers on trails , acted odd around the time of each attack , and resembled the composite , yes the show does not show that part now ....why ? morf pointed out when I said this and 3-4 members said never heard of any ranger , that no there was a mention of a park ranger in his FBI files he bought, interviewed by FBI it gave a name that is redacted excluded because of handwriting only Oh and the Zodiac climbing route is the 5th R of the jutting peak , L of horsetail falls google image sites have it makes you wonder if climbers heard the above stories to give it that name

Thanks Davb, Yosemite is a little over an hour away from Modesto, where Kathleen Johns was abducted. I have one suspect who's father lived at the foot of Yosemite. The only serial killer Yosemite ranger I am familiar with, was Cary Stayner in July 1999. He killed Carole Sund , her daughter Julie and close friend Silvina Pelosso.
There was a murder of a young female Yosemite worker found in a mine shaft, I think it was in the 1970's? That of course reminded me Dana Lull of Las Vegas ,who was killed by a man who walked up to a car that she and her boyfriend were parked in. She was taken at gun point and shot in the head, then dumped in a mine shaft. The description of her killer was very close to what we know of Zodiac. I missed seeing the FBI report about a ranger suspect, I will have to go over those reports again.

That post at ZKS was in 2010 I think he, morf omitted it in his new site or zks 2.0 or is it 3.0 now seems odd to me that a poi that the fbi is all over back in late 69 or 70 is thrown out completely when some weakly connected poi stood the test of time even ALA is weak
he posted that part of his FBI files later like in 12 I read about the firefall in yosemite ,that the meadow below where every body watched at 9pm was more of a young adult sat. Night makeout spot it ended in jan 68 patroled by rangers

The most logical route to take to San Francisco from the main gate of yosemite is hiway 130, where k johns nearly became #6 lets see, stick around and listen to the crickets churp on fri/sat. Nite or booket 2 hours to the most exciting city in the west coast. Also a good reason no one could find Z in the SF area

Thats certainly interesting events at Yosemite / personel Sandy thanks That same site I got info about the firefall said many of yosemite's rangers came out of Texas

I also saw that in the early 70s they had a shooter firing at the climbers on the rock from the valley , a lot of the time it was exactly placed 9ft away

Davb2, That is also something that I never heard before. My parents use to go the watch the fire falls when I was a young teen. I always wanted to see them . It is my understanding that you can only see them for a short time in February?
When you mentioned about people being shot at on the rock , it reminded me of when my father and I were out on our boat fishing in 1969 at Bodega Bay. Someone shot at us about 4 or 5 shots. The water was a bit choppy so he missed hitting us, we did duck down in the boat. My father thought it could have been someone shooting at sharks? Looking back that was about when I was being followed in Vallejo/Napa.
I was also shot at when I was on the delta target practicing in the late 70's. Again while my fireman boyfriend and I were sitting by the water on Bethel Island, someone shot at us. That was so close that we could hear the buzz of the bullet go past our heads.(That was early to mid 80's.)
I haven't been shot at sense I took a picture of my Honcho suspect.He is the one that Darlene's family and VPD said looked like Larry Kane. We now know his name is not Larry Kane. This is the one who still stops by my home from time to time. The last time was last August 13th 2018, so he is still alive.
