On todays podcast discusses the 1978 disappearance of five mentally handicapped men from Yuba County, California, who went missing after a basketball game. They drove an hour in the wrong direction and ended up on a snowy mountain. Their vehicle was found with snacks and gas still intact. Bodies were found 11.5 and 16.6 miles away, indicating they died from the elements. The only survivor, Ted Weir, was found wrapped in blankets, suggesting he was cared for. Theories include panic, forced hitchhiking, or Gary Mathias's schizophrenia causing the incident. The case remains unsolved, with Mathias's body never found. The discussion centers on the mysterious disappearance of a group of boys who went missing on February 24, 1970, while checking the snow line. They were last seen at a convenience store on February 25 and 26. A convenience store clerk identified two members of the group, but their descriptions were inconsistent. The boys' bodies were found on February 28, four days later, in heavy snow. Theories include the boys being forced to drive up a mountain by an aggressive, possibly intoxicated man, or being abducted by aliens. The conversation also touches on the importance of Boy Scouts' survival skills and the impact of panic on survival. Don't miss it!
