VANCOUVER, Wash. — Authorities are asking for the public’s help in identifying a teen whose remains were found in Clark County nearly 37 years ago.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children recently completed a detailed, computer-generated image of the girl’s face and the Medical Examiner and Clark County Sheriff’s Office are hoping someone will recognize her.

The girl’s remains were discovered Feb. 24, 1980 in a wooded area near Fly Creek, in the county’s northeast corner.

Based on anthropological examination, she was 13 to18 years old when she died, which investigators think was in the late 1970s.
