On July 10, 1971, eight year old Douglas Legg would go missing from his family's summer retreat in the Adirondack Mountain region of Newcomb, New York. His disappearance would lead to the largest search for a missing person in New York State. What happened to Douglas remains a mystery to this day, despite all the effort to search for him he's never been found and with occasional leads as recently as 2020... In this episode we'll discuss the history of Great Camp Santanoni and the disappearance of Douglas Legg. Camp Santanoni is now owned by New York State and is the only Great Camp that is open to the public, offering hiking, fishing, boating, skiing and tours of the massive beautiful buildings.

July 2, 1918 an explosion at a munitions plant shook the night, killing 65 men, injuring dozens more, and nearly took out the city of Syracuse in the process. The cause of the explosion has never really been identified though there are several theories. Was it sabotage, and if so, was it an inside job? In this episode, we dive into the history of Split Rock and the explosion on that fateful night in 1918. We'll also dive into some rabbit holes, exploring the discovery of the Hart's Tongue Fern and the evolution of the Pinkerton Detective Agency & the first female investigator- Kate Warne.

On Tuesday October 28, 2008, 36-year-old Corrie Anderson would vanish without a trace. That morning she had worked her normal shift at Jamestown Community College, where she worked part time in the library, before stopping to visit her boyfriend at the car dealership where she worked. She would stop home before all signs of her vanished. There's been no trace of her since. In 2021 two sets of human remains would be found 10 yards apart of the Rails to Trails path in Portland, NY. While neither them would prove to be Corrie, they also lead to three additional mysteries. What happened to Corrie Anderson, Marquita Mull, & Patricia Laemmerhirt? And who is the Rails to Trails Jane Doe?
