74. The Missing Anthropologist (Mt.Rainier National Park, Washington)

In October 2020 a University of Washington professor and avid outdoorsman, set out on a solo overnight hike in Mount Rainier National Park. He was last seen on October 9th, and when he failed to return the next day, a massive search effort began. To this day, his disappearance remains an unsolved mystery, a haunting reminder of how even experienced hikers can vanish in the vast wilderness of our national parks. Tips: Mount Rainier NP at 360-569-2211 or [email protected]:https://namus.nij.ojp.gov/case/MP74986https://www.strangeoutdoors.com/mysterious-stories-blog/sam-dubalhttps://ls.berkeley.edu/news/dr-sam-dubalhttps://www.cnn.com/2020/10/23/us/missing-uw-professor-sam-dubal-trndFollow me on Instagram here.Support the showThe 10 Essentials for Outdoor Recreation here.Leave No Trace (LNT) principles here.Share a "Campfire Story" for us to read on the pod! email us: [email protected] Me a Coffee Hosted on Acast.
