  • She Walked; Dogs Said Otherwise - The Tanner River Jacket Mystery

    She Walked; Dogs Said Otherwise - The Tanner River Jacket Mystery
    Jul 29 2026
    She Walked; Dogs Said Otherwise - The Tanner River Jacket Mystery

    Cold morning air held a secret: a 26-year-old woman found alive in frost wearing a man's canvas jacket "four sizes too large," and a tracking team whose dogs followed a scent that made a right-angle turn as if the woman had been carried. The jacket matched a father's description down to a taped cuff before anyone showed him a photo - so why did the dogs indicate she wasn't walking, and who gave a hypothermic 73-year-old a fleece jacket the afternoon before he was found? Which of these impossible details explains what really happened?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from Melissa Schmidt's last logged check-out at 2:15 p.m. to the search-and-rescue operation that began at dawn, mapping the scene spots, the wildlife-camera evidence, and the canine tracking behavior that rerouted the search into the Tanner drainage. How do the jacket, the dogs' pivot, and a stranded rancher fit into one unfolding question?

    Person: Melissa Schmidt
    Date: November 12-14, 2011
    Location: Tanner drainage / Turk's Saddle / County Road Nine, Dellard County, Idaho
    Status: Found alive in frost; missing for 36 hours
    Person: Walter Hines

    - Melissa Schmidt was 26 years old, 5 feet 4 inches tall, and weighed 122 pounds.
    - Melissa logged out of the Fish and Game office at 2:15 p.m. on November 12, 2011 and the wildlife camera recorded a single frame at 2:57 p.m. showing a wolf, not Melissa.
    - The overnight low temperature held at 18 degrees Fahrenheit.
    - Search-and-rescue was activated at 6:00 a.m. on November 13; dogs picked up Melissa's scent immediately then made a sharp right-angle turn toward the Tanner drainage.
    - Walter Hines, age 73, was found with moderate hypothermia beside the creek wearing a fleece jacket reportedly given to him the previous afternoon.

  • The Eleven Cairns: How a Perfect Line Led Him Astray

    The Eleven Cairns: How a Perfect Line Led Him Astray
    Jul 28 2026
    The Eleven Cairns: How a Perfect Line Led Him Astray

    A county surveyor found eleven pale quartzite stone towers in a straight line spanning eleven miles of roadless wilderness, made from nonlocal stone and aligned to a bearing of 172 degrees with less than two degrees deviation - and at the far end, a man was missing. Who built that perfect line, and how did it collide with the disappearance of an experienced, beacon-carrying hiker?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline and fieldwork that unfolded after Darlene Mitchell's discovery and the Gallatin County search that began when Neil Christensen reported his brother missing; we cover the discovery of the towers, Richard Christensen’s planned route and habits, the tracking dog’s puzzling behavior, and the first campsite - and ask how these pieces fit together.

    Person: Richard Christensen
    Date: October 11, 2019 (signed trail register at 6:52 AM)
    Location: Ridgeback Creek trailhead / Ridgeback Shelf, Gallatin Highlands, south-central Montana
    Event: Discovery of eleven stone towers by Darlene Mitchell on October 14, 2019
    Status: Richard did not return by expected date October 16, 2019; search initiated October 17, 2019

    - Eleven stone towers found in a perfectly straight line across eleven miles, bearing 172 degrees ±2 degrees.
    - Towers were two feet tall, made of pale water-smoothed quartzite not native to the area.
    - Darlene Mitchell discovered the first tower on October 14, 2019 and followed them for two miles before calling her supervisor.
    - Richard Christensen signed the Ridgeback Creek trailhead register on October 11, 2019 at 6:52 AM, planned to return by October 16, 2019.
    - Tracking dog Pepper located a scent moving south, then sat at a creek bank refusing to cross, indicating the scent split or doubled back.

  • Boot on a Locked Car, Dogs Howling at a Whispering Shelf

    Boot on a Locked Car, Dogs Howling at a Whispering Shelf
    Jul 27 2026
    Boot on a Locked Car, Dogs Howling at a Whispering Shelf

    A dry hiking boot, upright and laces tied, sat on the hood of a locked gray Toyota Camry after a night of rain-while its owner was found seven miles up the trail with one bare foot and no memory of placing it. Cadaver dogs gave sustained alerts to a bare granite shelf and searchers logged sixty-three pages before the report concluded the cause of the boot placement was "undetermined." How did a teacher who always called when plans changed end up seven miles away with her boot on a locked car?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from the moment Kelly Wright left for a solo overnight hike to the search-and-rescue response that unfolded when she did not return. You will hear what the parking lot looked like, why experienced coordinators treated the alerts as serious, and why the final SAR line-"Cause of boot placement - undetermined"-keeps the mystery alive.

    Person: Kelly Wright
    Date: September 6-8, 2019
    Location: Dunmore trailhead, Garnet Range
    Status: Subject recovered, outcome favorable
    Search documentation: 63 pages

    - The boot was upright with laces tied and completely dry despite a night of rain that soaked every surface in the lot.
    - Kelly Wright was a 32-year-old seventh-grade earth science teacher from Hartfield, Idaho who had been missing since Friday and was found seven miles up the Dunmore trail.
    - Two cadaver dogs, Pepper and Scout, gave independent alerts; Pepper sat and held an alert on a bare granite shelf for four minutes.
    - Kelly's gray Toyota Camry was parked in the gravel lot, locked with windows intact and no confirmed footprints around the vehicle.
    - The final line of the search-and-rescue report reads: "Subject recovered, outcome favorable. Cause of boot placement - undetermined."
