  • Larry Conn - Kings Canyon National Park - California

    Larry Conn - Kings Canyon National Park - California
    Apr 19 2025
    In October 2012, an experienced hiker vanished amid an early-season snowstorm near California's remote Taboose Pass. Despite extensive search efforts hindered by brutal terrain, freezing temperatures, and blinding whiteouts, rescuers found no trace. Months later, melting snow exposed startling clues, raising even deeper questions about what truly occurred near the alpine summit. With clear evidence of frantic emergency calls and an abandoned tent, the mystery deepens: Was it hypothermia, altitude sickness, or something more sinister? Join us as we explore the disappearance of Larry Conn in Kings Canyon National Park.
