A fitness enthusiast and mother of four, Michelle Vanek, 35, set out to conquer Colorado’s Mount of the Holy Cross in 2005. Straying onto the grueling Halo Ridge Route, Michelle faced fatigue, high-altitude sickness, and frigid temperatures.  After splitting from her hiking partner near the peak, she vanished without a trace.  Despite an exhaustive search involving hundreds of rescuers, only a boot was found—17 years later.  Did Michelle succumb to the mountain’s brutal elements, or does the Holy Cross Wilderness hold darker secrets? Tune in as we unravel the mystery surrounding her disappearance.

In 1845, Sir John Franklin led 129 men on HMS Erebus and HMS Terror into the Arctic, vanishing without a trace and sparking one of history’s most haunting mysteries. This Halloween, we explore the eerie legacy of the Franklin Expedition: ghostly sightings around the shipwrecks, chilling whispers near graves on Beechey Island, and cursed artifacts that bring misfortune to those who dare disturb them. Was it lead poisoning, starvation, or something supernatural that doomed the crew? Join us as we dive into the deep end of the Arctic’s frozen secrets and uncover what happened to Sir John Franklins Northwest passage expedition.

Correction 1: During the episode we incorrectly stated actor Alfred Molina (Doctor Octopus in the Spider Man movie) played Sir John Franklin in the AMC show The Terror.  The actor who played Franklin was actually Ciaran Hinds.  Thank you to listener Lara Mangieri for pointing this out!  You're correct, they do look similar. 

Correction 2: Joe mixed up Vitamin C and D by stating you get Vitamin C by sunlight.  Vitamin C is acquired by the food you eat and Vitamin D is made by your body when exposed to sunlight.  

Correction 3: Mike mispoke a couple of times during the timeline segment and referred to the Back River as the Black River.

On a quiet afternoon in January 1980, veteran park ranger Paul Fugate set out on a routine patrol in Arizona's Chiricahua National Monument, promising to return shortly.  He was never seen again.  Despite extensive searches, not a single trace of him was found. Was it a tragic accident in the rugged wilderness, or did something more sinister happen?  Join us as we revisit the mysterious disappearance of Paul Fugate.  (Episode 114)

We first covered this case back on December 1, 2018.  At that time, no other podcasts had covered Paul's case and very few shows were even focusing on wilderness disappearances.  Since then, the wilderness disappearances sub-genre has exploded with amazing shows like Park Predators & National Park After Dark.  With our 6 year anniversary coming up fast, we thought it would be fun to redo our first episode from the ground up, so we ditched the original show notes and came into the case fresh, with new perspectives on what might have happened.  Hope you enjoy the episode and let us know how EP 114 compares with EP1!  We can't thank you enough for sticking with us for 6 years and we're looking forward to many more years to come!

April 27th, 2021, In the shadow of Glacier National Park, on the rugged shores of Lower St. Mary Lake, a 26-year-old vanished under mysterious circumstances. What began as a typical spring evening quickly spiraled into one of Montana’s most perplexing missing person cases. Despite extensive searches, rumors, and disturbing clues, nothing has been found. Join us this week as we investigate the disappearance of Leo Wagner.  (Episode 113)

*EPISODE CORRECTION: We originally stated in the opening episode summary that Leo was last seen on 4/24/21.  While some reports stated the 24th & 26th, a review of all available case information points to Leo last being seen on 4/27/21.

On September 11, 2005, experienced outdoorsman and hunter, Tom Leonard, embarked on what was supposed to be the adventure of a lifetime. Armed with a rare, limited-entry permit to hunt sheep in the remote and rugged Spatsizi Plateau Wilderness Provincial Park, he meticulously planned a 10-day hunt, packing enough supplies for an additional 10 days, just in case. But when Tom failed to return home, his worried wife alerted authorities, sparking a massive search through one of Canada's most unforgiving landscapes.  (Episode 112)

What happened to Tom Leonard? Was it the treacherous terrain, unpredictable weather, or something far more sinister lurking in the wilderness?

Join us this week as we dive into the unsolved mystery of Tom Leonard’s disappearance, the search efforts, and the questions that remain unanswered to this day.

For our 100th episode, Extreme Filmmaker and Co-host of the show SVC Explorers of the Unknown Evan B Stone, is back to tell us about his Ghost Hunting trip to Chernobyl for Syfy Channel's Destination Truth.   

In 2009, Evan B.

Join us this week as we explore the potential connection between these disappearances, weaving together clues and theories that may shed light on these cases.  (Episode 99)

February 26th, 2015; A young man from the Big Island of Hawaii was on Oahu visiting his grandmother.  He planned to hike the Haiku Stairs, also known as the Stairway to Heaven.  His grandmother warned him it was illegal to hike the stairs and he could be arrested.  Not heeding her warnings, he set off on the hike that morning.  When he didn't return home, he was reported missing, and the search began.  Join us this week as we investigate the disappearance of Daylenn Pua.  (Episode 95)

Notes & Corrections: - Early in the episode, Joe states Moke was visiting his grandmother on the Big Island.  Mike corrects Joe around timestamp 5:15, stating that Moke was from the Big Island and visiting his grandmother on Oahu.   - There were a lot of discrepancies in our research on the age of Moke and the date he went missing.  We discuss this during the episode, and based on evidence believe he started his hike on the 26th, not the 27th, which is listed in many news reports on this case.

On the morning of August 23, 2008, a local man goes for an ATV ride on his property in Happy Valley, Tennessee, located on the border of Great Smoky Mountains National Park.  When he failed to contact his family, the local authorities were notified, and a search kicked off.  Days later, close to the National Park border, his abandoned ATV was found under strange circumstances.  Join us this week as we investigate the puzzling disappearance of Mike Hearon.  (Episode 89)

Correction: We incorrectly stated that the raccoon is the state symbol of Tennessee.  The raccoon is the state's Official Wild Animal.  The state of Tennessee has a number of Official state symbols.  Thank you to supporter Rachel for alerting us to this mistake.
