  • Robert Schock - North Cascades National Park - Washington
    2025/06/27
    July 31 2024, a 39-year-old ultrarunner vanished in the rugged North Cascades National Park during a 20-mile trail run. Minimally equipped, he became disoriented on wildfire-altered trails, surviving 30 days on berries and river water. Despite extensive searches by sheriff’s deputies, park rangers, and a helicopter, the park’s dense forests and remote terrain hid him. A trail crew’s chance discovery saved his life as he lay emaciated on a riverbank. Join us this week as we learn about the incredible survival story of Robert Schock.

  • Aubrey Sacco - Langtang National Park - Nepal
    2025/06/14
    April 2010, a young American backpacker set out alone on a trek through Nepal’s scenic Langtang Valley. She was last seen confidently hiking along a popular trail but then vanished without a trace. Despite exhaustive searches, not a single piece of evidence emerged. This disappearance remains one of Nepal’s most puzzling mysteries, leaving her family still searching for answers more than a decade later. Was it a tragic accident, or did she fall victim to something darker? Join us this week as we investigate the case of Aubrey Sacco.

  • Joseph Wood Jr - Mount Rainier National Park - Washington
    2025/06/06
    In July 1999, a 34-year-old book editor from New York set out for a day hike near Comet Falls in Mount Rainier National Park. Despite clear skies, he left the main trail and entered rugged, snow-covered terrain. When he never returned, an extensive search turned up nothing—no gear, no footprints, no clues. Join us this week as we investigate the disappearance of Joseph “Joe” Lee Wood Jr.

  • Larry Conn - Kings Canyon National Park - California
    2025/04/19
    In October 2012, an experienced hiker vanished amid an early-season snowstorm near California's remote Taboose Pass. Despite extensive search efforts hindered by brutal terrain, freezing temperatures, and blinding whiteouts, rescuers found no trace. Months later, melting snow exposed startling clues, raising even deeper questions about what truly occurred near the alpine summit. With clear evidence of frantic emergency calls and an abandoned tent, the mystery deepens: Was it hypothermia, altitude sickness, or something more sinister? Join us as we explore the disappearance of Larry Conn in Kings Canyon National Park.

    Mark your calendars! We have a special multi hour live stream coming up on the evening of 4/23/25. Guests on the stream include the hosts of National Park After Dark, Extreme Filmmaker and Director of Photograhy on Discovery Channel's Expedition Unknown Evan B Stone, and the hosts from Crime Off the Grid and Off the Trails. Stay tuned for more details!
