Our conversation covered their recent adventure in Antarctica, their new show Watch Her Cook, some of their most chilling hiking experiences, and a few memorable, funny moments.

  • Larry Conn - Kings Canyon National Park - California
    Apr 19 2025
    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 Photography on Discovery Channel's Expedition Unknown Evan B Stone, and the hosts from Crime Off the Grid and Off the Trails.

  • Lost Hunter: Ronald Gray's disappearance in Idaho's Bitterroot Wilderness
    Mar 8 2025
    On September 19, 2008, Ronald Scott Gray, a seasoned 62-year-old retired Marine and Massachusetts State Police captain, vanished during an elk hunt in Idaho’s rugged Selway-Bitterroot wilderness. Despite extensive survival training, he disappeared without a trace. His backpack, found near Highline Lake, provided no definitive clues. Unusual behavior noted by companions hinted at possible disorientation or psychological factors. Harsh weather and challenging terrain complicated the intensive search. His mysterious disappearance remains unsolved, highlighting how even the most experienced outdoorsman can become lost in vast, unforgiving wilderness.

    Note: Mike is recovering from a serious illness and had some issues with his voice this episode. We apologize for the listening inconvenience and hope for his speedy recovery by next episode!
