Tiffany Slaton, a 28-year-old from Georgia, survived 24 days in the Sierra Nevada mountains after a solo camping trip went awry. Enduring snowstorms, an avalanche, and injuries, she foraged for food and maintained her mental health through journaling.

Tiffany Slaton had no contact with her parents. She had gone missing during a hike in the snowy Sierra Nevada mountains.

California deputies say it was the longest period of time they've seen someone be missing in the remote snowy wilderness and survive.
