The Nevada Triangle

The Nevada Triangle

Author: Locations Unknown April 13, 2021 Duration: 1:14:56
The Nevada Triangle, a vast area in the American Southwest, has been the site of more than 2,000 aircraft disappearances over the last 60 years.  This imaginary triangle stretches from Las Vegas NV, west to Fresno CA, north to Reno NV, and back South to Las Vegas, covering almost 25,000 square miles.  Over the years, some of the most experienced pilots have gone missing in this area without explanation. Join us this week as we investigate the Nevada 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.
