Welcome to Episode 213 of the sounds like a search and rescue podcast. This week, good friend of the show and author Ken Bosse joins us. Ken recently published his 4th book - “They Said It’s Dangerous” - a light hearted look at some of the dangers hikers can be faced with. This is Ken’s 4th book and as always, all profits from Ken’s books go to the NH Outdoor Council which supports local search and rescue teams. Ken will sit in with us today and will catch up on a bunch of topics including the mystery of an abandoned tent in the White Mountains that has made national news, a rough day on Mount Washington, the Cog railway had to say upwards of 20 hikers who were ill prepared for an early burst of winter like conditions. Plus naked hikers, NH declared the best place to raise a family, Siberian Log Fires, an overview of some hiking in Hawaii, and we catch up on recent search and rescue news.
