On June 23rd, 2021, a geologist working on a remote job site in the Sonoran Desert, west of Phoenix Arizona, started behaving strangely shortly after arriving for the day.  His coworker noticed him looking off into the desert with a blank stare before getting into his car and driving off, never to be seen again.  Join us this week as we investigate the bizarre disappearance of Daniel Robinson and the puzzling discovery a month later that leaves more questions than answers.  (Episode 76)

CORRECTION ON SNAKE BITES:  Around the 21:42 mark we discussed what to do if you get bit by a rattlesnake.  After explaining that you should seek immediate medical attention, we also mentioned the use of a tourniquet and mechanical suction if you can't get to a hospital.  Many of our amazing listeners have called the show or sent us emails correcting us on this.  According to the Wilderness Medical Society Practice Guidelines, both methods of treating snake bites are not recommended.  You can learn more about the proper ways to treat snake bites here.

Locations Unknown ventures into the silent, vast spaces where people have simply gone missing. Hosts Mike & Joe guide each episode through a specific case, piecing together timelines from the final known moments, through the often-frustrating official searches, and into the lingering questions that haunt families and park rangers alike. This isn't just a true crime podcast; it’s a close look at the intersection of human error, unpredictable nature, and the peculiar geography of places like dense national forests and isolated mountain ranges that can swallow a person whole. You’ll hear about the decisions made in the critical hours, the terrain that complicated everything, and the community of experts and amateurs who keep looking. The show naturally explores how these landscapes, while beautiful, hold secrets, making the wilderness itself a central character in every story. Tune in for a respectful, detailed examination of stories that end not with a conclusion, but with an open map and a deepened mystery. The podcast digs into the cultural fascination with these vanishings and what they reveal about our relationship with the wild, remote corners of the country.
