Family members continued to stop by the site Tuesday.

"It's not easy. We have to muster our courage just to keep going. But at least now there's a kind of relief knowing that she's been found," said Jean-Marie Fortier, Cdrika's maternal grandfather.

A vigil will be held on Saturday, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET, at Parc Chapais in Trois-Rivires.

All the Scouts will be wearing their scarves.

"We were present from the start and we will continue to be there for the family," Lalibert Caron said.

Police investigation continues

On Tuesday, about 200 police officers spent the day combing the area.

They raked the ground in search of any clues and drove through the swampy area on all-terrain vehicles.

Grald Adam owns the property where Cdrikaremains were found.

"It's difficult terrain, especially because the forest is very, very dense. Some of it is underwater, some of it is dry. The first part of the property is dry land. After that, it's a large marsh," Adam said.

A light snowfall on Tuesday prompted officers to work quickly in an effort to finish combing the entire area before the ground is eventually covered in snow.

Police are not saying ifinvestigators have found anything significant in their search so far.
