Yosemite National Park is famous for its granite cliffs and waterfalls, but past the crowded tourist centers lies millions of acres of dense, rugged terrain.

In this episode, we examine three baffling missing persons cases out of Yosemite. We look at a woman who vanished on a familiar trail, a man who disappeared while hiking with a large group, and a disciplined soldier who seemed to completely evaporate into his surroundings. Even years later, searchers have found absolutely no trace of them.
