https://slasrpodcast.com/  

Welcome to the Sounds Like a Search and Rescue Podcast! Also known as SLASR. Join an experienced search and rescue volunteer and his friend as they discuss all things related to hiking and search and rescue in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

This week we welcome Keith Gentili, author of the new book White Mountains State - A Four Year Journey Hiking and Summiting New Hampshire’s 48 Highest Peaks. Keith will join us to talk about his new book and share his unique perspective on hiking in the White Mountains. While Keith is here I am going to put him on the hot spot and ask him to advise me on my strategy for the remaining 18 summits I have for my winter 48.
