Rural areas and especially places like national parks are still possible hunting grounds. In fact I often wonder if some of the folks that go missing each year in those parks (and its in the hundreds ) arent prey to serial killers.
Randall Lee Smith was finally caught around 2008 after killing 2 and attempting to murder two other people on the Appalachian trail between 1981 and 2008. He was finally caught because well, he was kind of an idiot, and tried to kill two guys who fought back and managed to get the authorities in time after a wild arse chase through the woods.
Even with DNA evidence and updated forensics it took him trying to bite off more than he could chew before he got caught.

National Parks and areas with remote hiking trails have been some serial killers hunting grounds for years.
Single people walking trails could be easy targets for them. Kill them, hide the body and leave as little trace as possible.
Raping women, handling the body for any length of time and having it found fairly quickly could lead to DNA being found, but the longer it takes to find the body, the less evidence is usually found.
