Author: Locations Unknown May 22, 2019 Duration: 1:22:28
There are certain areas of the planet that seem to be magnets for mysterious disappearances that defy our understanding of science and nature.  For decades, these hot spots of unexplained activity have captivated our imaginations and ignited stories of government conspiracies and UFO encounters.  In Alaska, A vast, untouched wilderness of sprawling forests, icy mountain peaks, and desolate tundra, known as the Alaska Triangle, has been at the center of over 16,000 disappearances since 1988.  What's going on in this remote, unexplored wilderness that causes so many people to disappear without a trace?  Is there a scientific explanation for why so many have gone missing or is something more sinister happening?  Join us this week as we try to uncover the truth behind the Alaska Triangle.

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.
