About this listen

Emily Carter investigates wilderness disappearances that defy logical explanation in national parks and remote areas. Six-year-old Dennis Martin vanished during a family camping trip in Great Smoky Mountains, prompting the largest search in park history with no trace found despite 1,400 searchers. Experienced teen hiker Stacy Arras disappeared in Yosemite while horseback riding with family, her horse found peacefully grazing but Stacy gone without explanation. Brandon Swanson vanished during a phone call with his father while walking through Minnesota farmland, his last words "Oh shit" before complete silence. These cases challenge traditional search-and-rescue understanding, featuring missing persons who vanish from familiar terrain without leaving evidence, often in areas with histories of similar unexplained disappearances, raising questions about what we don't understand about wilderness survival.
