The Woman Who Found the Station on Tincup Pass

from Above the Snowline — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo

Eleven thousand feet above sea level, on a ridge that doesn't appear on any modern map, there used to be a weather station. Not a government station. Not a university project. Just a wooden tower with a wind vane and a logbook that someone had been updating by hand for forty years. In October 2019, a solo hiker named Carrie Benoit stumbled onto it during an early-season snowstorm. She thought she'd found a shelter. She found something that had been watching the pass long before the pass had a name. This is the story of what Carrie wrote in the last pages of that logbook, and why the Forest Service sealed the site the following spring. #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #AboveTheSnowline #TincupPass #WeatherStation #Colorado #Logbook #Observing #SanJuanMountains #October #Snowstorm #Alone #CarrieBenoit #WoodenTower #WindVane #UnmarkedTrail #HighAltitude #SealedSite Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
