On October 9th, 2020, Sam Dubal set out on an overnight solo hike in Mount Rainier National Park. As an experienced and prepared hiker, he planned to do a quick one day hike of the Mother Mountain Loop, expecting to finish on October 10th. When he hadn’t returned by October 12th, he was reported missing and a large search and rescue mission kicked off. Join us this week as we investigate the puzzling disappearance of Sam Dubal and the extensive search that followed.
