National Park Mysteries 4: Santa Fe 1

Established on July 1, 1915 in northern New Mexico, the Santa Fe National Forest encompasses 1.5 million acres of beautiful and dangerous terrain. In the summer, temperatures averagely reach into the mid 80’s by mid day, making this a summer time destination for all who appreciate the outdoors. Rainbow and Cutthroat Trout attract fishing enthusiasts to the park's 620 miles of streams and lakes. Bighorn Sheep, Mule Deer, Elk, Black Bear, and Mountain Lions are all natural residents of the Park’s flourishing forests. But, as we’ve learned before, the National Park system has a darker side. One that’s shrouded in mystery, death, and strange occurrences that defy what we know about the world that we call home. There are over 13 thousand open missing persons claims in the National Park System and over 250 of those come from Santa Fe National Park. Some of these cases include stories that just don't seem to make sense without the involvement of the unnatural or unknown. And those are the stories that we explore on today’s episode, National Park Mysteries Part 4: Santa Fe. Welcome Back to Infinite Rabbit Hole
