Two Dutch women are missing in Panama
A friend of mine has sent me this, and I want to help people if possible.
So I got the idea to post it here on this forum because if you know that everything is possible in this reality, you never know exactly what the possibilities are.. Specially on this forum..
With it, then!

Two Dutch women aged 21 and 22 years are missing in Panama . Since 1 April The students were last seen at the school where they were following language lesson. Family and friends of the women are seriously concerned .
The 22 year old Lisanne Froon from Amersfoort and the 21 year old Kris Kremers from Utrecht where in Panama to learn Spanish and stay with a local family. Since April 1, the families of the two did not hear anything from them. That day, both women had planned to walk to a volcano near Boquete with a guide. Kris and Lisanne had to be there but never showed. The guide decided to go to the house of the students, but did not find them there to. According to the home owner, there belongings and money was found in their room .
reward:
The two know each other from their work as a waitress at a cafe in Amersfoort. According to a friend of Lisanne the trip was a reward for getting her diploma.
search:
According to Foreign Affairs, the Panamanian authorities has started a large-scale search. Also, the dutch ambassador Wiebe de Boer are taken the case very seriously. The families of the women have set up a Facebook page to ask for attention.
Indians are helping to search for missing the friends:
The help of the local Indian tribes are on and they are now looking for the Dutch girlfriends, who have been missing since Tuesday in the national park around the Baru volcano.

Some thirty men with sniffer dogs and horses was searching into the woods surrounding the town of Volcan Baru in Boquete in the west of the Central American country.
The wife of one of the members from the search team, who speaks the language of the Indians, visited the Indians who lives on the flanks of the volcano to question about the Dutch girls.
Whatsapp - messages:
Lisanne Froon and Kris Kremers left Tuesday for a walk, probably towards the volcano, but at the evening they didn't return to the family in Boquete where they stayed. " They sent every day whatsapp messages, but after Monday held that suddenly , " says Hans Kremers, the father of Kris.
"Enough food and water''
There had been already a team on the road in the vicinity of the town and around the base of the volcano, then a crew pulled up the mountain. A spokesman for the local police says they are used all possible resources and people to find the two.
The police spokesman has high hopes that the two are still alive and well. "We do not believe that something intentionally bad is done to them. They can certainly be lost, but there is enough water and food in the area to keep them alive for several days.
He also considers that chances are that one of the Indian tribes who live on or near the volcano, are taken care of them.
So far, for the police is this not yet an crime alarm.
In this area is little crime and there has never been a case of kidnapping or violence against tourists in the past. According to Hans Kremers, his daughter and girlfriend are not the types who run into trouble. They never just go along with a stranger and if they change their plans, they always report that.
Spanish:
Lisanne Froon and Kris Kreemers grew up together in Amersfoort. Lisanne are studying in Deventer and Kris had just completed her studies at the University of Utrecht. They went to Panama together for Spanish study. Next week they would begin four weeks of volunteer work at a daycare for children.
According to the local guides, if you go towards the volcano you could easily get lost..
Do you have information , you may contact the Missing Persons Netherlands - Telephone +31 ( 0 ) 64-6625716 E-mail missingpersons@live.nl
Any way I hope the girls are found in one piece. What a terrible uncertainty for the family. Strength and positive vibration for them all!

I was there in the summer of 2013 ... great country and beautiful rainforest !!
See my post here (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?67065-The-Flight-is-booked--&p=780191&viewfull=1#post780191)
But it can be dangerous too ... I had some 'exciting' moments when our raft flipped while white water rafting.
While a day before my daughters and I almost got lost in a steep mountainous rainforest just before sunset.
Trick is not to panic and stay calm ... I can imagine that without experience a relaxing moment can turn into
a life threatening one in a split second if you don't stay cool ...

"So I think I should write down what really happened and happening since in Holland in the media I read that they went up Volcán Barú what is really not true since they booked that tour with us for Saturday; they were going to go with a guide on Saturday and they were also specifically told not to do Baru alone as well as that it was already 13:00 pm.
So we gave them options, they looked on Internet (last searches all about EL PIANISTA TRAIL) and on a map (pointed out EL PIANISTA TRAIL) so we suspect they went to that trail, but they still could have go hiking somewhere else or maybe they didnt go hiking anywhere.
The thing is we don't know. It is extremely worriesome. The local authorities are doing lots of searches on all trails; today also with an helicopter. Also volunteers have been going around everywhere. There are also lots of flyers everywhere. Tomorrow we are going with more people searching."

Talking to a friend in Boquete who has walked El Pianista trail, mentioned that it is very easy to get confused on the way back and start walking towards Bocas del Toro instead of back to Boquete. We keep praying for them and hoping they find them soon.
Remote viewers, seems like we got work for you.

Posted by Boquete Equestrian Centre:
"Lisanne was wearing white sleeveless shirt and shorts and Kris was wearing black pants, they couldn't remember what colour of shirt she was wearing, or if it was long or short sleeve, but one person said dark navy as a possibility for shirt. Both had dark (black?) backpacks, lightweight, indicating they had not packed for a serious hike.
Both are reported to have been extremely well focused, serious and on a mission with their hikes and volunteer work. These are not party girls, nor are they flitty. They are not ones who would change their minds, or not show up for their scheduled tours the following day. They are reliable, punctual, responsible and serious. Both did their homework on hiking trails, making sure they had covered every possible angle; weather, dangers of terrain, what to wear, sites near by, etc.
I saw the history on their computer and they researched thoroughly Pianista as one possible hiking venue- location, transportation, restaurant and trail. These girls are intelligent, methodical, plan well ahead, pay attention to detail and think things well through in advance.
They had maps and sat imagery and were familiarising themselves with Baru, planning to climb it Sat/Sun. Both girls are fit and enjoy hiking. They were hot and sweating and red from walking, so all things point to them not being acclimatised to altitude, no matter how fit they are. We're praying that they are found and will leave no stone unturned tomorrow, in the LKL zone. God is with them."

This is the thing: the last moment they were seen is here around 13:00 at the school. After that we don't know anything. Today I am going around the neighborhood here with pictures talking to anybody to see if somebody actually have seen them getting in the direction to Boquete. From the school you can go to Palmira, Boquete or David. We can't keep looking on the trails. We need to know more about what exactly has happened after 13:00 here.
Talked to SINAPROC again a few minutes ago: http://www.sinaproc.gob.pa/
So the Director Ubaldo Contreros putSubDirector Francisco SantaMaria in charge of "Operativo de Búsqueda de las Holandesas Perdidas". Today they are going to check out more possible trails that they could have taken by mistake if they have been on the PIANISTA TRAIL. He says: Ceibo (north of Boquete) and everything towards Bocas del Toro, el sendero la Playita, and north of a certain farm.. This is what he just told me.
Meanwhile we here at the school make a new flyer for the neighborhood (finding out if anybody here has seen them after 13:00 and in what direction) and talk to everybody that we see in the streets here/ at 9:00 we can find out if the Scotia Bank has something on their Security Camara System / at 9:00 we will know more about the possibility to have a broadcasting on the Indian Radio "Faro de David".

According to a friend of the girls, they had a 2pm appointment at the Pianista trail head, but they never showed up. Is this common knowledge? Do we have any actual evidence they went hiking anywhere at all?
Went to Baja Mono this am and handed out fliers to native people, bus drivers this am, also Boquete. Noone has seen them. On our way home my friend Maru Martinez (http://facebook.com/marulin) said she talked to them on Tuesday around 1pm as they asked her for a ride this was near Palo Alto, Indian Village before Villa Marita. Did they go hiking after this? Is there hiking near Palo Alto?
On Monday March 31st, late morning, I passed 3 girls, alone, of about this age hiking on the Jaramillo road on the El Oasis side. They were just above where the road narrows to one lane. I only remember that there was a tall one wearing glasses and one was carrying a metal water bottle. All three were wearing shorts. They had a Germanic appearance. At least one had a small backpack.
Heard on Radio Chiriqui 107.1 FM this morning the, two young women, are being searched for on the Volcan Baru. When hikers want to hike the Volcan Baru, they have to register at the ranger station. They have a search party looking for them in that area.
If clouds roll in as one reaches the top, a person could become disoriented, going off-course. Boquete's side is straight forward, but the other side of the Volcan Baru is not there are many trails. Let's hope they are found safe and sound.

"Yes we went to the meeting and police, sinaproc, representations of embassies, etc talked about the conclusions they can draw and basically from what i heard, they think that all the tips that they verified lead to the idea that they DID go on the pianista trail.
(The only thing is they they maybe didn't listen too much to Pedro from Casa Pedro who had the strong impression that after the small hike that they did (only 30 min in total but on a steep hike and Lisanne had a cold) on the trail next to his house, they were so tired that they wanted to go back to Boquete). They sat down on the floor on the side of his house saying that they did not want to go to El Pianista anymore but rather, to town. They sat there for a while and he did not see how they left and in what direction. It must have been about 15:00 at least.
So we are not sure if it was them but it was definitely (two girls, very young, one taller than the other one, with a black backpack, speaking English, but not native English, came there with a taxi first of all asking for the pianista trail (logic since in the front of the house is a sign that talks about the trail next to Casa Pedro and also having an arrow pointing that you have to continue the main road to get to the Pianista trail) .. Pedro/Peter explained that they would have to go further to the Pianista trail but .. that there is this trail next to his house as well.. Since we know that they most probably left the house with the intention to go to the Pianista trail (because of what we tell students on the welcome talk, the information at the school and the fact that they searched on the computer for even more information about the Pianista Trail, even the exact location of the Restaurant).. .... anyways.. I am not a detective and I know that you should leave all other possibilities open but it sounds that they were Lisanne and Kris.. what we still don't know if it where them and neither, if, after this first decision to go back to Boquete, they changed their mind and STILL decided to go to the El Pianista Trail.. it is so not logic...that they went up that trail so late.. the tips on the Pianista Trail are from people saying that they saw two girls very late (at 3 or later)...
Anyways.. I heard that tomorrow they are continuing looking on the El Pianista trail. There are also initiatives from volunteers tomorrow to go check out profoundly the Pianista Trail and everything around the trails. I am going to meet the Sinaproc Director right now and will post more info."

The press in Holland says that a person that thinks he has seen Lisanne and Kris tuesday afternoon says that Lisanne and Kris were doubting if they could go on the trail or not. The real story is that this person lives next to another trail and he said that that was also a nice trail, that they didnt need to go to the El Pianista Trail. So they actually went on that trail and were back after 30 minutes saying that they were very tired and were going back to Boquete. They sat on the side of the road to go back to Boquete, not on the side of the road which would lead to El Pianista. They sat for a long time on the road waiting for a bus or a taxi. They have not seen what they finally did.

STOP THE CRIME - BOQUETE PANAMA
Search for two missing Dutch Tourists becomes a criminal investigation (http://www.altoalcrimen.org/?p=96)
2014/04/07 BY LEE ZELTZER
This morning Lee Zeltzer had a word with one of the volunteers searching for the two missing Dutch women in Boquete. Phil advised me that the search had moved out from Il Pianista back to town. He said the owner of Il Pianista, Giovani, had spoken to the women on April 1 and told them where to catch a bus back to Boquete. This along with other rumors drove me to drive to Il Pianista.
http://www.boqueteguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/IMG_2576.jpg
(Il Pianista at the road to the trail)
Giovani was not at the restaurant but his wife Doris was. This is what she said.
http://www.boqueteguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/IMG_2572.jpg
Giovani saw the women on 1 April near Don Pedro hitching toward Il Pianista. An employee at Il Pianista saw them start-up the trail between 3:00 and 3:30PM. Blue their dog, who often follows hikers went with them.
No one can remember seeing them return. Blue did return and Doris believes because of the hour they could not have gone far. She and Gionvani believe that they did return or the dog would have stayed with them.
All of this information has been provided directly by them to the DIJ investigators and Sinproc.
http://www.boqueteguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/IMG_2573-412x550.jpg
There is no current search at Il Pianista. Although I have been told that Sinproc is searching in another area. Based upon the days of searching where they were last seen and finding nothing this search is now becoming a criminal investigation.
Perhaps the offer of $2,500 for information leading to their discovery will bring some information.

Martinelli Says Panama Is Doing Everything It Can To Find Missing Dutch Women (http://www.panama-guide.com/article.php/20140407103602813)
Monday, April 07 2014
by: Don Winner
During a press conference on Sunday, President Ricardo Martinelli thanked the Dutch embassy “for the confidence” during the search party, De Telegraaf reports.
According to sources, the travelers had difficulty choosing between two walking routes, one of which is El Pianista Trail.
Ingrid Lommers, director of a language school the women visited, says that they turned back to Boquete after 30 minutes, exhausted.
Thick clouds are hampering the search party now, a rescue service member tells. Rescuers are also battling with the Panama landscape, needing ropes to travel downwards, sometimes 500 meters.
According to the Dutch ambassador, Wiebe de Boer, cooperation between Panama’s authorities and the Netherlands is “very good.”

I didn't really follow this news but saw yesterday on Dutch news they were still missing. It also came closer
because I now learned in detail that they actually stayed in Boquete and followed a trail we walked too.
If they are still out there they're probably not just simply lost in the jungle ... I know that this trail has very
steep slippery muddy slopes. You have to pull yourself up at several places but you need to pay attention
where to place your hands because some trees have sticky painful needles and there are also less harmless
creatures like full sized scorpions and venomous coral snakes.
You don't want to get hurt out there ... bad cell phone coverage and many hours/miles to get out.

The latest news in a Dutch newspaper indicated this week that they might not be lost on a hiking trail after all.
They were seen with 2 boys having dinner. So what to make of that?
Boquete is a small village/community. Most people I met there were very open and friendly.
Hard to imagine that something could happen there without someone knowing something.

I just checked,
The volcano, the park volcano, it is on a ley line, or a vortex line.
A particularly nasty one, and it is tied to the 411 park situations.
The same ley line system that is tied to the mothman, the dark beings with red eyes, those sort of sightings and encounters. (chupacabra being part of it)
This is part of the reason I suspect that there is CIA'ish and Skull&bones connections to those areas of Central America (united Fruit company, etc. All the nasty fascist killer dark side of the Us regime system. Columbia, and so on). bases, dimensional crossing zones, energy influence zones, and so on.

Cell phones of Kris and Lisanne found.
Research breakthroughs Panama
by John van den Heuvel
BOQUETE -
The investigation into Kris' and Lisanne's disappearance has received a significant boost yesterday in Panama now a backpack of one of the two missing girls is found, with two mobile phones, digital cameras, clothing and a medical insurance card.
A Panamanian Indian found the stuff in a river an eight hours walk from where Kris and Lisanne were last seen in early April. He recognized the name on the insurance card and reported the discovery to the police.
After reports, research leader Betzaida Pitti flew with a helicopter to find the place and confirmed the find last night. The find of the stuff is very important for the research because it is the first concrete trace of the two girls after going missing.
The Panamanian investigation team was looking, after the futile efforts of a Dutch volunteer team with sniffer dogs at an impasse. Now phones and other personal belongings have been found, the team has new clues for further research like DNA testing.
As can be subjected to DNA testing bag and clothes and the data on the phones can search algorithms. The key finding is coincidental with the departure of three Dutch detectives to Panama. They depart from Schiphol today and will receive an initial briefing tomorrow from Panamanian criminal investigation and prosecution. The intention is to send more Dutch detectives later in the week. The parents of Lisanne and Kris are very tensed because this is the first concrete clue.
The river, where the personal property was found by the police in Panama, is very high because of heavy rainfall. So it still is uncertain whether the backpack is left behind on that spot or in a place further upstream. The next few days new research is expected to take place.

Unfortunately it starts to look more and more grim :(
Human remains found in Panama
PANAMA -
Human remains were found in Panama in the same area where previously a backpack from the missing Kris Kremers and Lisanne Froon was located.
The Ministry of Foreign affairs confirmed on Thursday that "bones and shoes" were found. It remains to be seen whether the remains of the missing young women have been found.
Foreign Affairs hopes that it will soon be clear. The Panamanian research leader Betzaida Pitty announced during a brief press conference that forensics is done in Panama City, it is unknown how long that will take.

It's approximately two and a half months ago ... I don't think a body decomposes that fast to bones alone.
That is ... under normal circumstances.
Anyone else with a more expert view on this?

This whole case sends chills up and down my spine because I was exactly there less than a year ago, despite being
very careful I got lost for a moment in the jungle with my 2 daughters and a day later we found ourselves fighting for
our lives when our raft flipped over in, only (!), a class 3 river. It is so very easy to lose control there in Panama ...
I love the jungle and it is one of the most beautiful places that I visited ... but don't let that peaceful forest fool you.
It can be dangerous in a split second of negligence.
