EDMONTON — It’s been a decade since 70-year-old Stephanie Stewart vanished while working alone at a wildfire lookout in dense mountain forest in northwestern Alberta. RCMP determined the healthy and adventurous senior, an experienced fire spotter who spent many summers living in the bush, was most probably a homicide victim. “It’s a very puzzling thing,” Turnbull says. Dennis Malayko with the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees says he’s received no complaints from lookout workers since Stewart was killed. Young retired a few years before Stewart vanished, but before that had stopped often to see her as he sketched maps and took photos of all the province’s lookout areas.
