Corrected entry: A blind girl walking through the woods on her own? She would have been bouncing off the trees like a ball in a pinball machine. There is no way any blind person can walk through dense woods on their own with so many obstacles at ground, waist and head level, whether carrying a stick or not (as she sometimes didn't). Bearing in mind she had never been in these woods before as it was a no go area makes this a totally ridiculous part of the film.

Correction: This is not necessarily true. Although she would be having a hard time it is not impossible for her to do what she is doing even as a blind person. She also is not shown walking without effort. It is also mentioned that she is not completely blind. Either way I have seen many blind people walk through much rougher terrain than a forest with no problems. As for the whole monster encounter, she memorized the terrain where the hole was and was able to go back to it because of this.
