July 31 2024, a 39-year-old ultrarunner vanished in the rugged North Cascades National Park during a 20-mile trail run. Minimally equipped, he became disoriented on wildfire-altered trails, surviving 30 days on berries and river water. Despite extensive searches by sheriff's deputies, park rangers, and a helicopter, the park's dense forests and remote terrain hid him. A trail crew's chance discovery saved his life as he lay emaciated on a riverbank.  Join us this week as we learn about the incredible survival story of Robert Schock.SHOW NOTE - We're off for the next month as we move into our new studio.  We'll be back in August with new episodes!  Learn more about Locations Unknown: https://linktr.ee/LocationsUnknownCheck out our other shows on the Unknown Media Network:Crime Off The GridOff The TrailsThe Peanut Butter and Mountains PodcastThe Weirdos We Know  Who Runs This ParkNew Patreon Shoutouts: Kierstyn Skelton, Christine Brown, Michelle Barstad, Sara Carroll, & Trina LohmanWant to help the show out and get even more Locations Unknown content!  For as little as $5 a month, you can become a Patron of Locations Unknown and get access to our episodes early, special members only episode, free swag, swag contests, and discounts to our Locations Unknown Store!  Become a Patron of the Locations Unknown Podcast by visiting our Patreon page.  (https://www.patreon.com/locationsunknown)  All our Patreon only content (Audio & Video) can now be accessed via Spotify.  (Active subscription to our Patreon channel is required.) -- Locations Unknown Subscriber Only Show | Podcast on Spotify  Want to call into the show and leave us a message?  Now you can!  Call 208-391-6913 and leave Locations Unknown a voice message and we may air it on a future message! View live recordings of the show on our YouTube channel: Locations Unknown - YouTubePresented by Unknown Media Group.Hosts: Mike Van de Bogert & Joe EratoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/locations-unknown--6183838/support.

Send us a textAuthor-photographer Josh Jackson grew up camping the Midwest's state-parks but it wasn't until he had moved to California, and after the birth of his third child, in 2015—when every California campground was booked solid—that a friend uttered the words “BLM land.” One spur-of-the-moment trip to the Trona Pinnacles cracked open a new universe: 15 million acres of under-sung, “left-over” public land in California alone. Over the next decade Jackson made pandemic-era pilgrimages to deserts, sagebrush plateaus, and the Lost Coast's King Range, keeping a field journal, hauling a camera, and gradually uncovering two intertwined stories:A Scrappy, Essential Landscape – Bureau of Land Management parcels host wild‐and‐scenic rivers, endangered species, Indigenous cultural sites, and 60+ first-come camps where solitude still reigns.A Perpetual Target – From the Sagebrush Rebellion to Senator Mike Lee's 2025 amendments that would auction up to 1.2 million acres, BLM lands survive only by “enduring” repeated sell-off and extraction threats.The Enduring Wild braids those threads—personal awakening, ecological portraits, Indigenous history, and political urgency—into 100 photographs and 45 k words aimed at turning anonymity into affection. Jackson's thesis echoes Baba Dioum: “In the end, we will conserve only what we love.” His book is an invitation to know, love, and therefore defend America's most overlooked public commons.Come down to the Henry Miller Library - browse and buy your copy ofThe Enduring Wild. Wallace Stegner;These are some of the things wilderness can do for us. That is the reason we need to put into effect, for its preservation, some other principle that the principles of exploitation or "usefulness" or even recreation. We simply need that wild country available to us, even if we never do more than drive to its edge and look in. For it can be a means of reassuring ourselves of our sanity as creatures, a part of the geography of hope.https://psych.utah.edu/_resources/documents/psych4130/Stenger_W.pdfSupport the show_________________________________________________This podcast is a production of the Henry Miller Memorial Library with support from The Arts Council for Monterey County!

What does it take to protect towering dunes, alpine tundra, and ancient wetlands—all in one park? In this episode, we sit down with Andrea Compton, Superintendent of Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve in southern Colorado. Known for its surreal dune field (the tallest in North America), the park also holds rich biodiversity: from subalpine lakes to desert shrublands, all shaped by a powerful, protected watershed.Andrea shares how her early fascination with the natural world—and a career rooted in bat, bird, and owl surveys—led her from environmental consulting to the National Park Service. We trace her path from Cabrillo National Monument to Joshua Tree, and now to Great Sand Dunes, where scientific research, resource stewardship, and storytelling converge.She breaks down how inventory and monitoring programs help the Park Service track ecosystem change over time, and reveals the lesser-known histories of the places she's managed—from tide pools and WWII bunkers to sacred springs and groundwater politics.This episode is for the science-minded, the sand dune dreamers, and anyone curious about how we conserve complexity in the wild.You can follow Who Runs This Park on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook or YouTube, can email us at info@whorunsthispark.com or check us out online at whorunsthispark.com. Sign up for the Who Runs This Park's newsletter at linktr.ee/whorunsthispark. Who Runs This Park is produced by Maddie Pellman with music by Danielle Bees.

Welcome back to Yellowstone National Park, as the Animals of the National Park Photography Competition continues! Maverick the Moose wants NOTHING to do with the competition.  In fact, he wants nothing to do with ANYTHING or ANYONE besides himself.  He's a loner and wants to keep it that way.  After a run in with Slinky the Caterpillar, he finds himself face to face with another small creature.  Will he run away again?  Could anything convince him to join in the competition?  Join us to find out and to learn how Jesus created us to be known and know others – to be in community – both with others who know Him AND with Himself and Father God!  Learn more about Ms. Adventure's Treehouse at our ⁠⁠website⁠⁠, join our ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ community, or connect with Charity at ⁠msadventurestreehouse@gmail.com⁠⁠.

Thanks for finding our podcast! We are a family of 5 who does most of our travel using credit card points and miles and we share how we leverage credit card offers to earn a ton of points/miles so we can afford travel as a larger family.Follow us on Instagram @TravelPartyof5The towering sequoias of Mariposa Grove, the refreshing mist from Bridal Veil Falls, and the unexpected joy of watching our typically reserved 11-year-old exclaim "This is amazing!" – our family adventure to Yosemite National Park delivered all this and more.Our road trip strategy began with renting a hybrid minivan for the 2,000-mile journey, earning American Airlines miles while saving our personal vehicle from mountain roads and inevitable snack debris. After an overnight at the Holiday Inn Express in Oakhurst (booked with an IHG free night certificate), we kicked off our Yosemite exploration with the Valley Floor Tour – a perfect introduction that provided fascinating insights into the park's history and ecology, including how indigenous fire management practices were disrupted by European settlers.For families considering Yosemite with young children, we discovered some perfect trails: Lower Yosemite Falls offers an easy walk with spectacular views, while Bridal Veil Falls rewards visitors with cooling mist after a short hike. The more ambitious Mariposa Grove trail showcased magnificent giant sequoias but required multiple breaks to manage the heat and terrain with our little ones. One unexpected highlight? Encountering a rattlesnake – though we had hoped for bears and deer during our visit!Accommodation was a crucial part of our experience. Rush Creek Lodge, located just minutes from the west entrance (though still a 45-minute drive to the valley floor), proved worth every penny of its $538 nightly rate. The resort offered heated pools, zip lines, game rooms, nightly s'mores, and endless activities that kept our kids entertained from sunrise to sunset. Even without televisions in the rooms, we connected as a family through board games and outdoor adventures.Our biggest tips? Map your route carefully to minimize backtracking on winding mountain roads, prepare for motion sickness with Dramamine (administered a full hour before departure), and check multiple weather sources before packing – we brought cold-weather gear for forecasted 60-degree days but encountered 90-degree heat instead!Looking to create your own Yosemite memories? Follow us on Instagram @TravelParty5 for photos, videos, and more insights from our adventure. And tune in next week when we continue our journey with our Lake Tahoe experiences!

This year Mackinac Island celebrates a big milestone; it's been 150 years since it was named a National Park. It was only the second space given that designation in the nation, behind Yellowstone. Mackinac Island is a State Park these days, and it enjoys a rich and intriguing history that creates a sense of timelessness. Today we explore some of the chronology that take the island from Anishinaabe fishing community, to Revolutionary War outpost, to the carless, fudge-filled spot it is today.

Isle Royale National Park is the Great Lakes Mecca for backpackers. This archipelago of islands is also one of our most remote National Parks so preparing for a visit takes extra planning. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Chris Amidon, Supervisory Park Ranger for Interpretation and Visitor Services. He not only has tips for first-timers, but also has details on some new procedures, particularly when it comes to food storage.Key Takeaways:Planning your experience shapes everything: “The first thing we ask is, what type of experience are you looking to have?” From backpacking and boating to lodge stays, your approach determines your transportation and gear.Getting to the island is part of the journey: “Part of the Isle Royale experience is the transportation to the island. It's that extra step that most parks don't have.”Food storage regulations have changed:Starting in 2025, visitors are required to use approved food storage containers due to wildlife activity near camps and harbors.Wildlife sightings are rare but magical:“Encountering a moose is a really magical moment and I remember backpacking a trip I did with my daughter... those are the types of experiences that Isle Royale offer just by putting yourself in this remote island setting.”Most of Isle Royale is federally designated wilderness:99% of the park is wilderness, meaning motorized equipment is limited—adding to both its preservation and the physical demands of upkeep.The Artist-in-Residence program reveals new perspectives:“The Artist-in-Residence Program… that's kind of my, I would say, my soft spot.” From Shakespearean sonnets to ceramic bark impressions, Chris helps curate a mix of art forms that deepen understanding of the island.Visitation may be low, but the planning is intense:Only about 20,000 people visit Isle Royale each year—and most come during just three months—putting pressure on resources and requiring detailed planning.Resources:Isle Royale National Park – Plan your visithttps://www.nps.gov/isro/index.htmRanger III Ferry & Seaplane Info –https://www.nps.gov/isro/planyourvisit/directions.htmIsle Royale Artist-in-Residence Program –https://www.nps.gov/isro/getinvolved/artist-in-residence.htmConnect With Us:Lake Superior Podcast Page – https://nplsf.org/podcastFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/NationalParksOfLakeSuperiorFoundationLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/company/national-parks-of-lake-superior-foundationSponsors:Cafe Imports – Minneapolis-based importers of specialty green coffees since 1993, focused on sustainability. Learn more: https://cafeimports.comNational Parks of Lake Superior Foundation – Donate to protect Lake Superior's five national parks: https://nplsf.org/donateBe sure to tune in to this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast to hear Chris Amidon share essential guidance for visitors, the inside story on Artist-in-Residence selections, and the quiet power of a sunrise over Feltman Lake.

Wohooo! Wir haben wieder ein Jubiläum zu feiern! Kaum zu glauben, aber mit unserem tierisch!-Podcast sind wir nun schon in 100 Folgen in die wilde Welt der Tiere gereist. Wir haben den Kaiserpinguin und das Okapi abgefeiert, die evolutiven Konzepte von Graufußtölpel und Hammerkopf infrage gestellt und über Bodenorganismen und Tiefseelebewesen gestaunt. Wir waren in den Nationalparks dieser Erde und in den entlegenen, wilden Winkeln der Natur unterwegs. Wir haben euch mit zu unseren Forschungsprojekten genommen. Es war eine tolle Zeit, und gefühlt kommen zu jedem Thema, das wir behandelt haben, drei neue hinzu. Seid also unbesorgt – wenn es nach uns geht, geht es noch mindestens 100 Folgen weiter. Heute feiern wir euch! Unsere wunderbare Community! Ihr habt uns zum Jubiläum auf Instagram und Spotify viele Fragen und Themenwünsche geschickt. Wir haben uns einen tollen Gast, oder besser gesagt Quizmaster, eingeladen: Erik Lorenz vom Weltwach-Podcast wird uns in dieser Folge eure Nachrichten präsentieren! Erik hat vor über zwei Jahren gemeinsam mit uns den tierisch!-Podcast aus der Taufe gehoben. Das Weltwach-Team betreut uns immer noch hervorragend, weshalb wir mit ihm unseren Dankesreigen starten: Erik, Miriam und Janna von Weltwach: Danke!!! Es macht so großen Spaß, mit euch zu arbeiten! Außerdem geht ein riesiges Dankeschön an unsere Unterstützer: den Förderverein Boddenlandschaft e. V., die Biodiversity Foundation und alle, die uns auf Steady unterstützen.

April 2010, a young American backpacker set out alone on a trek through Nepal's scenic Langtang Valley. She was last seen confidently hiking along a popular trail but then vanished without a trace. Despite exhaustive searches, not a single piece of evidence emerged. This disappearance remains one of Nepal's most puzzling mysteries, leaving her family still searching for answers more than a decade later.  Was it a tragic accident, or did she fall victim to something darker? Join us this week as we investigate the case of Aubrey Sacco.(00:00) Introduction(03:07) Episode Summary(04:04) Location Profile(12:59) Magic Mind Ad(20:20) Character Profile(24:32) Timeline(39:10) TheoriesThank you to Magic Mind for Sponsoring the episode.  Get 60% off the Magic Mind offer with our link and codehttps://magicmind.com/unknownmf & UNKNOWN60Learn more about Locations Unknown: https://linktr.ee/LocationsUnknownCheck out our other shows on the Unknown Media Network:Crime Off The GridOff The TrailsThe Peanut Butter and Mountains PodcastThe Weirdos We Know  Who Runs This ParkNew Patreon Shoutouts: Sarah McDonough, Amanda Wood, & Emylee StrubelWant to help the show out and get even more Locations Unknown content!  For as little as $5 a month, you can become a Patron of Locations Unknown and get access to our episodes early, special members only episode, free swag, swag contests, and discounts to our Locations Unknown Store!  Become a Patron of the Locations Unknown Podcast by visiting our Patreon page.  (https://www.patreon.com/locationsunknown)  All our Patreon only content (Audio & Video) can now be accessed via Spotify.  (Active subscription to our Patreon channel is required.) -- Locations Unknown Subscriber Only Show | Podcast on Spotify  Want to call into the show and leave us a message?  Now you can!  Call 208-391-6913 and leave Locations Unknown a voice message and we may air it on a future message! View live recordings of the show on our YouTube channel: Locations Unknown - YouTubePresented by Unknown Media Group.Hosts: Mike Van de Bogert & Joe EratoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/locations-unknown--6183838/support.

The National Park System (NPS) is a national treasure. US National Parks represent just about every type of feature and wildlife you can imagine. And it's not just parks: The NPS includes national monuments, memorials, scenic trails, lakeshores, battlefields, recreation areas, and more. The concept of a national park is credited to George Catlin, a 19th-century lawyer, painter, and adventurer. His travels took him all over the burgeoning United States, where he met fifty native tribes. He also worried about the loss of wildlife, wilderness, and indigenous people as America expanded westward into the frontier. His solution? A ‘nation's park' — land protected by the government for future generations. That vision became reality in 1872, when Yellowstone, in what's now Wyoming, became the first national park established by Congress. Now there are 63 National Parks across the US and its territories, from Acadia in Maine to Yosemite in California, Denali in Alaska to Dry Tortugas in Florida, and so many more in between. In this episode, we explore the almost overwhelming awesomeness of the NPS and take a virtual tour of some of the coolest experiences you can have in nature. We learn about the history of hippos and the Everglades, meet the most dangerous animal in the Grand Canyon, and learn the best place to eat popovers in Maine. Then we recommend five books that took us on big adventures in national parks, including a historical novel in Oklahoma, an adventure story in the Pacific Northwest, a murder mystery in Michigan, a memoir in Arizona, and a Bigfoot tale in Washington. Shelterwood by Lisa Wingate Wild: A Journey from Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail by Cheryl Strayed A Superior Death by Nevada Barr A Walk in the Park: The True Story of a Spectacular Misadventure in the Grand Canyon by Kevin Fedarko Devolution: A Firsthand Account of the Rainier Sasquatch Massacre by Max Brooks For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit show notes.
