August 1, 2018, 28 year old Samantha Sayers set off on a solo hike of Vesper Peak in the remote North Cascades wilderness of Washington State.  As an experienced hiker who’s traversed this route multiple times, it should have been a routine day hike.  However, Sam was never heard from or seen again.  Sam's disappearance would kick off one of the largest search and rescue operations in state history that ultimately failed to uncover any clues about what happened.  Join us this week as we investigate the disappearance of Samantha Sayers.  (Episode 47)     New Patreon supporter shout outs: Cassandra McCurry, Staci Cate, Eileen Dellwo, Marissa Tippets, June from the Murders Mysteries & Meows Podcast, Ashley Holt, & Elizabeth Barney.  Want to help the show out and get even more Locations Unknown content!  For as little as $1 a month, you can become a Patron of Locations Unknown and get access to special Patreon only episode, free swag, swag contests, your picture on our supporter wall of fame, our Patreon only Discord Server, and discounts to our upcoming Locations Unknown Store!  Become a Patron of the Locations Unknown Podcast by visiting our Patreon page.  Episode Shout out - Elizabeth Barney  Sponsors of this episode include https://verdurecbd.com/.   Want to call into the show and leave us a message?  Now you can!  Call 208-391-6913 and leave Locations Unknown a voice message and we may air it on a future message!  View live recordings of the show on our YouTube channel: Locations Unknown - YouTube  Want to advertise on the podcast?  Visit the following link to learn more.  Advertise on Locations Unknown  Learn about other unsolved missing persons cases in America's wilderness at Locations Unknown.  Follow us on Facebook & Instagram.  Also check us out on two new platforms - Pocketnet & Rumble.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/locations-unknown--6183838/support.
