A student shared this article, about a new study that's combing through trash middens at the site of the ill-fated Donner-Reed party's camp in the Sierras. Thus far they haven't found human bones. But if I remember Ordeal by Hunger correctly (admittedly an old book, written for a popular audience), several survivors were never thought to have resorted to cannibalism, and the camp was strung out over a considerable distance, so there were likely several places where bones were discarded.
The sick and wrong cartoon is by my buddy Travis Kelly of Moab - check out his website:
