The body of Michelle Ashlee Dickson, missing since July 15, was found underneath the Thomas Creek Bridge in Oregon Wednesday afternoon.

Two hikers found the body and after getting back into cell phone range contacted the Del Norte Sheriff’s Department, said Del Norte County Sheriff's Department Cmdr. Bill Steven.

Dickson’s body was positively IDed earlier today.

“We just stayed with the body until it was positively IDed,” he said.

Dickson went missing after an alleged marijuana deal took place south of Crescent City at a beach off U.S. Highway 101, where the burnt skeletal remains of her car were found by Sheriffs.

The cause of death is unknown at this time, and Dickson’s body will undergo an autopsy.

The only suspect so far involved in her disappearance is 27-year-old Josiah Miller, of Arcata.
