Deep beneath the crystal-blue waters of Lake Crescent lies one of Olympic National Park's darkest secrets. In 1940, a body surfaced—wrapped in blankets, bound with rope, and perfectly preserved by the icy depths. Locals called her the Lady of the Lake, but investigators would uncover her true identity as a woman who vanished three years earlier. Left behind are whispers that still haunt the lake today. Join us as we dive into the eerie beauty, grim history, and ghostly legends of Lake Crescent—the lake that doesn't give up its dead.Support the show!For bonus content join our Patreon!patreon.com/CrimeOfftheGridFor a one time donation:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cotgFor more information about the podcast, check outhttps://crimeoffthegrid.com/Check out our Merch!! https://in-wild-places.square.site/s/shopFollow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/crimeoffthegridpodcast/ and (1) FacebookSources: https://www.historylink.org/File/8599 https://www.myolympicpark.com/park/history/the-lady-of-crescent-lake/ https://www.thevintagenews.com/2018/03/23/lady-of-the-lake/ https://thebadassintrovert.wordpress.com/2016/06/22/weird-history-part-5-washington-state-and-the-lady-of-the-lake/

During the last federal government shutdown in late 2018 and early 2019, national parks here in California were greatly impacted. Some shut down completely, meaning a significant loss in potential revenue. Others remained open, but were not fully staffed. That includes Joshua Tree National Park in Southern California. Vehicles drove off-road, causing major damage to sensitive areas, and trash piled up, scattered around the park. The hope is things will be different this time around. Guest: Kenji Haroutunian, Executive Director, friends of Joshua Tree Santa Clara County prosecutors have secured a grand jury indictment against 11 pro-Palestinian Stanford University protestors who barricaded themselves in the campus president's office in 2024.

In this episode, recorded on location, we'll discover a side to Rocky Mountain National Park that most people don't even know exists. Beyond the beautiful mountains and trails, the park is a Living Laboratory of science with about 100 scientific projects happening at any one time. Some of the most cutting-edge ecology, biology and conservation in the world is being done right here. Rocky Mountain National Park may feel isolated from the cities and industry of the plains, but it's not. It's part of inter-connected system in which every piece is dependent on one another. And to understand how that works, and why that's important, we're going to hike up to more than 10,000-feet to one of the most remote research stations in the country to find out about an experiment that has been going on in the park for more than 38-years. It's one of the longest running ecological research studies in the world and it's changing the way we understand the park, the plains and even our own relationship to the wild places we love.

The late historian David Mccullough is very much missed, but the new book “History Matters,” posthumously published this fall, helps us remember why history is so important for all of us and is under threat. Especially now, given the current scrutiny how the Smithsonian Museum and our National Parks are telling American history. “History Matters” is a collection of Mccullough's essays that address the importance of history especially our shared history as Americans. Many of the essays have never been published, the collection includes a foreword by Jon Meacham, the book is edited by McCullough's daughter Dorie Mccullough Lawson, and his longtime researcher Michael Hill.
Join Kelsey and her bestie Danae (a Trip Tales fan fav!) as they share all the details from Danae's family of four's dreamy 9-day New England summer adventure in August 2025. This trip was packed with coastal vibes and bucket-list stops — from three days on Block Island, a charming and approachable alternative to Nantucket, to a stop in Ogunquit, Maine for a private sailboat ride, to the show-stopping Bar Harbor Inn right at the edge of Acadia National Park.Danae gives us the scoop on ferries, family-friendly hikes, unforgettable seafood (lobster rolls, chowder, and fresh steamers!), and why Acadia's Great Head hike and Sand Beach were the highlight of the entire trip. You'll also hear why the Bar Harbor Inn blew her away with unexpected touches like homemade cookies, s'mores by the fire, and an infinity pool overlooking the ocean.This episode is available to watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kelseygravesIf you'd like to share about your trip on the podcast, email me at: kelsey@triptalespodcast.comBuy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/kelseygravesFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelsey_gravesMentioned in this episode:- Providence, Rhode Island - Point Judith Termindal | Block Island Ferry- Block Island AirBNB Rental: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/52534528- Block Island hikes: Mohegan Bluffs, Rodman's Hollow- Block Island beaches: Andy's Way, Crescent Beach- Block Island restaurants: The Oar, The National, The Spring House Hotel- Block Island official drink: The Mudslide- Ogunquit: Anchorage by the Sea Hotel, Marginal Way, Barnacle Billy's- Boston and Newburyport, MA- Bar Harbor: The Bar Harbor Inn, Lunch (sandwich shop), Geddy's, Galyn's, Land Bridge Hike- 4th Grade National Park Pass- Acadia National Park: Sunrise at Cadillac Mountain.

Among the informational signs flagged for review under the Trump administration's purge of “improper ideology” at National Parks is language at the Sitka National Monument Russian Bishop's House explaining how missionaries worked to destroy Indigenous cultures and languages in Alaska. A panel at Florida's Castillo de San Marcos National Monument is being questioned for including text about forced assimilation of imprisoned Native Americans. They are part of the ongoing review of parks, museums, and other institutions for information deemed disparaging to Americans. The review has prompted considerable concern over who is making decisions about how historical events are portrayed and whether Native historians have any input. GUESTS Michaela Pavlat (Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians), Indigenous partnerships program manager for the National Parks Conservation Association Julie Reed (Cherokee), associate professor of history at the University of Tulsa Morning Star Gali (Pit River Tribe), executive director of Indigenous Justice and the California tribal and community liaison for the International Indian Treaty Council Kimberly Smith (Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians), community conservation specialist for The Wilderness Society

When Jefferey Lendrum was a boy, he loved birds. What began as a childhood passion volunteering for an ornithology program transformed into a life of wildlife crime - scaling cliffs to steal and then smuggle falcon eggs around the world. Despite multiple arrests, steep fines and various investigations - he just couldn't quit. What motivated him? How did his dedication to birds turn to destruction? This is the story of the “Pablo Escobar of Falcon Eggs”.
