Episode 248 - Return to Mount Katahdin, Hunting Season Stories, Search and Rescue News, Mount...

Welcome to Episode 248 of the sounds like a search and rescue podcast, this week we are catching up on recent hiking news and search and rescue activity in and around the Whites. Plus event reminders, Bubba’s Backyard update, hunting season updates and why hunters getting shot is not as uncommon as you think, search and rescue news including two hiker fatalities and a bizarre rescue story on Mt. Washington of the hiker who kept quitting his hike and then un-quitting it and his hapless friends who were not able to control him… plus recent hikes - Mike was on Mt. Katahdin this weekend for a perfect fall day. Nick and family were on Mount Pemi, Doubleheads, Black Mountain, Diana’s Baths and Echo Lake (Conway).







Episode corrections



Mike said this was Episode 284 incorrectly, this is episode 248…



We did not get to the Katahdin history, which will be covered in a later episode.
