I’ve hiked alone in so many state and national parks. Almost died in Arches, long story, but had nothing to do with the park. Just the people I met on a trail. Not only should people never hike alone, also never trust strangers you meet when you’re out there. Especially if they offer you food or drink. Be very careful. Few live to tell about their ordeal. I’m one of the lucky few.
Did you run into bad people while hiking? I've always wondered if that happens cause you never hear about it if it happens. I'm glad you're ok. I'm sorry I'm trying to pry i understand if you don't wanna answer.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist per se; but, I lean toward your warning about people being the threat. Nowadays, too many people are more interested in making money at any cost than being decent human beings. I DO believe that many of these people, especially the younger, healthier ones, are being kidnapped for nefarious reasons.
Hi Rusty and fellow followers. I find it particularly interesting that the FBI was called in when Barry went missing in Glacier National Park. There have been an incredible amount of people that have gone missing in that particular park. I wonder what the FBI knows that we don't. Thank you Rusty for this well put together and narrated video. I look forward to the next one! Until then, everyone stay safe!!
It's possible that multiple things could be responsible for these incidents For instance, i know this so called "explanation" that these are the work of satanists or a satanic cult has been tossed around. Olympic NP in particular has had witnesses to strange gatherings if hooded figures and other evidence of satanic cult activity. Unweaving the mystery is going to be difficuy
@@IanP1963 I know the FBI has appeared and investigated many of these disappearances. There is no doubt in my mind they have formed opinions. However, the FBI is not sharing what, if anything, they have discovered and I am not one to speculate without factual evidence.
Aloha Rusty! As I was looking for updates on Julian Sands, I saw that on Sunday yet another hiker went missing in the same area as Julian Sands. A 75 year old man named Jin Chung arrived with two friends at 6 a.m. to the hiking area on Sunday morning. Upon arrival, he separated from them & they agreed to meet there back at the car at 2 p.m. Mr. Chung did not show up at the meeting time, and they have not heard from him. I hope they are recovered soon & are o.k. 🙏 The Sheriff's office is warming people to stay away from the Mt. Baldy area, as there are high wind warnings.
Thank you Rusty for your channel. My family & I NEVER enter any national/state parks, forests, woods, deserts, or mountains! We do NOT hunt, camp, fish, hike, kayak, etc. Too many strange unexplained disappearances. If the poor soul is found, they are deceased. I firmly believe there is more going on than what our government is telling the American public. We have the right to know to at least avoid certain areas, & try to protect our loved ones! Why the cover up? Why are park rangers & law enforcement personnel threatened to keep their mouths shut? Or, told they will lose their jobs. Sometimes, even worse than that!
i didn´t know Julian Sands was a missing person. so sad to hear. i know him from various movies and liked him a lot. my condolences to the famiies and friends of all the missing persons. greetings from germany.
There’s been severa fatalities on Mt Baldy in winter seasons. 5 days before he went missing a woman fell 1k feet in that same area he’s missing in (Baldy bowl)
@@_nick_d I lived up there near this location for a few years. Once above the tree line this is a bare and jagged country. Rough stuff, and snowfalls can appear quickly and can be extreme. We had 5' in one night at our place once. I hope they can find this man.
Damn that sucks about Sands, I liked his acting work. One thing stuck out to me about that story was his friends saying he was in great shape, not going to matter if you get hit with a flash flood or sudden blizzard. Hope he turns up (all of them for that matter), but he's right at the edge of time that's possibly survivable if found in the next day or two.
@loditx7706 it doesn't matter. It's the fun of it. Kind of like a campfire story or a creepypasta. It doesn't need to be real to be something enjoyable to listen to on long drives :)
@@BManStan1991 Maybe, we used to argue about history things. My father and I loved to read history to the extent that some of our discussions sounded like gossip about people with whom we were acquainted.
@loditx7706 that's cool. I think of history in the same light also. Who's to say how much of it is made up or he said she said? I'm sure much of history very well could be made up exaggerations, or completely false.
Nice to hear your voice again. Keep up the great work, look forward to getting a notification that Rusty is still out there doing a wonderful job. Happy new year my friend 😃 😊
Thankyou Rusty! I’m always excited to see you post a new video but also sad for the loved ones left behind wondering what happened to their loved ones.
Awesome. Just happened to be searching for an episode before bed. My goto is episode 2-14 3.5hr one. Played about 100x by now. Love that sad violin music.
My Heart thoughts go out to all family friends of missing souls who never made it back from Hiking Camping ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🌹🌹🌹🌹 The mountain scenery is stunning Rusty Thank you for sharing .
Even though so many people go missing while hiking, camping, hunting , etc. alone, people still keep going out doing those things alone. I guess they think nothing bad will ever happen to them.
Rusty, I thank you for the wonderful footage of some of my most favorite trails! Love your commentary. Thank you! ! I also wonder, what is going on in Yosemite? I have camped, hiked and spent time there over the years. I do remember something suspicious on trail when day hiking solo, coming about a bend , down the mountain, there was a bright yellow and blue backpack sitting on top of a rocky outcrop, not far from the trail, however, it felt to me it had been placed there like bait. This was in 2010 or 11. There had been few others on trail that afternoon. I did call out a greeting, but no answer, and the forrest was unusually quiet. For some reason, the hair stood up on the back of my neck and trusting my instinct , I ran the entire length of the trail back to the valley floor. I've never spoken about it before, but did happen. I've been hiking the Pacific Northwest all my life, and have had some interesting encounters. But this felt different. Contrived. Makes me wonder, what is going on in Yosemite?
When I hiked one of the essentials I carried was a waterproof notepad and "space pen"...always in the back of my mind if something happened I'd write it down. I enjoyed being out...but I never thought " nature" was kind.
I'm annoyed at silly people going in bad conditions or those who court trouble by going alone. (Annoyed but sad). The haunting music at the end is touching.
i don't have nobody to go hike with but yeah it's a really stupid thing to go alone, alot of people do it and they never had an issue, but i don't want to be one of these people who end up lost and never found, i visit small trails and close by lakes, i stay away from national parks for now, once i have more experience and I'm able to conceal carry when i turn 21 maybe than i will concider it
glad to have a new one from you Rusty, many thanks. The music was difficult to listen to, I had to keep skipping the parts with certain musical notes. You always had wonderful music, previously. RIP all those who have lost their lives and all the bereaved loved ones
Another incredible treat from Rusty!! I look forward to your videos, as they are so thoughtfully and respectfully done. Thank you Rusty, and you also please stay safe. Take care Pat in New Jersey.
Thanks, Rusty, for another great video. And a special thanks for investing your time to research and present these baffling cases. Looking forward to Episode #36.
As a solo backpacker, i understand the risk undertaken. I begin each trek secretly hoping i will perish out there and never be found. Invariably, the incredible beauty and peace i find fades my civilian troubles and i find the strength to return home and press on. It is simply a matter of fact that some of the solo hikers you encounter are trying to summit mental peaks more daunting than the physical. Be kind to fellow travelers. You may be the last person to see them alive, and your words of encouragement could be what they need to keep on.
Good morning Rusty from a spring like morning in Mullion Cornwall England Hope you and family are doing well Happy New year to you everyone . I will sit back listen to more reasons Not to hike alone and to take Heavh weapon with you camping Be aware of your surroundings LISTEN TO YOUR INTUITION ALWAYS . Yvonne

I used to take my family camping in the remote Adirondack Mountains, on state forest land. Twenty miles from the nearest paved road, no cellphone service, just rural campsites spaced far apart from each other, each equipped with a fire pit, picnic table, and an outhouse. I loved it. The feeling of being free and away from civilization was awesome. Now, I cringe to think about how naive I was. No more remote camping for me and my family. And I always carry a weapon. Anything can happen out there.
Hello Rusty and welcome back again. Looking forward to this video. People hiking have to learn for once and for all, not to go to these parks alone! It is better to go in groups. And, as Rusty said, they have to be prepared for all kind of emergencies. It is sad these these folks disappeared and couldn’t be founded. Don’t mess with Mother Nature, she is strongest than you are.
@@TS-rd7oy.. I guess in a tramping/hiking club or church group maybe. Wouldn't be as fun though as going with a buddy or two. In a club it would have to be with some you got to know fairly well.
Well regarding the area where Julian Sands was hiking, Mt. Baldy, CA. I have hiked those trails, and sections of the trail in the summer are kind of Hairy. I have never hiked those trails in the winter, but with ice on the trail, they would be extremely dangerous, especially if you don't have the right equipment or experience. Specifically the trail called "Devils Backbone". It is right above Baldy Bowl. If you slide off the trail its a long ways down, with lots of jagged rocks to hit on the way down.
@@harveymushman4539 Also, Baldy trails start at around three or four thousand feet and have up to six thousand feet of elevation gain. We took a short hike from Baldy Village in November: When the late afternoon sun moved over the mountain the temperature dropped a lot, and fairly quickly. It is easy to forget to stay hydrated as well.
🤔🤔Hey rusty I hope these families find closure for their missing love ones not knowing what happened to them is frustrating if you are planning on hiking on the trail or rugged mountains 🌄 please have extra clothing for the weather at least 2 ppl just in case a working phone with good reception a flashlight 🔦 plenty of supplies snacks and plenty water bottles stay safe🤔🤔
When I was younger I'd dream of one day visiting all the famous parks in the U.S. Now that I'm alot older, there's no way I'd go camping in any one of them! something is def going on and I'm almost certain alot of the park rangers are aware of it and some are hiding stuff from the public. It's like all those horror movies have come to life!
I was back country camping in the Shenandoah Mountains National Park (Virginia) in the early 80's with my brother. Early in the morning I heard something walking in the woods not far away and was cracking some really big branches as you can tell by the loud cracks it made. My brother in the other tent, heard the same thing. Whatever it was, was walking closer and closer to my tent, where eventually it was right outside my tent making these grunting and growling noises. I told my brother it was right outside my tent, not but a couple feet from my face where I was sitting. Then, James suddenly yelled out...."I have a gun and I will shoot you!!" Just then, whatever it was started backing up away from me thank God. As we compared notes later, we both thought it odd that it seemed that it was walking on two feet, as we knew the sounds of wildlife when they walk through the woods and it wasn't a bear or a dear, etc. To this day, we will never know. But whatever it was responded to my brothers hi pitched voice and then walked away, or it understood English. Who knows. To this day, I don't think I would be here telling this story, if my brother hadn't been with me. I haven't back country camped since that day. Listen to this man's intelligent advice. A lot of people disappear in National Forests and National Parks who are on their own or get separated from their friends
That experience would change a persons mind to hike or camp alone, still why do people do it then their gone with out a trace,thank god for your brother, I'd never ever SLP in a tent,no protection there from any animals omy
Great that you put photos of people first and then photos of park's name. And great you made the breaks between cases longer. 👏 Your reading is good, incl its speed (tempo) I would recommend to work on the melody, the first half sounds sometimes kind of robotic. Then you became more natural in reading. That is my impression. :) I like your videos and wish you the best.
Thanks again, Rusty! I love these compilations. I have a suggestion, can you do a compilation of college town cases? Look into "Missing 411-A sobering coincidence" for cases.
You can’t go out into that vastness ..someone ,or something is waiting for you to just dare do it…but don’t do it. It will get you, n you only…cos all that matters out there is you at the time. Thanks rusty ..will never get tired of that music..it evokes the sadness of all thoses poor souls that didn’t stand a chance. If it is a person that’s doing it ..then they will be judged by a realm far higher n greater then them..and it will hurt when he catches up with them..God sees everything.
I live in the city below Mount Baldy. The weather here for the past six weeks has been crazy winds, unpredictable rain, and cold overnight. We went to Baldy Village (almost 4,200 feet) in November: There were patches of snow and it was cool and dry, the kind of day where one might forget to stay hydrated or not have adequate gear for the late afternoon temperature drops. As I have gotten older, staying warm is more of a challenge.
The problem with taking this line of thinking is - you could become the next missing person. The choice is yours. We all have to reconsider things we like to do. Especially as we get older. I liked to mountaineer in my 20’s & 30’s. Gave it up after a trip to Snowdonia in North Wales when bad weather came in very suddenly & rapidly. I may well have been a statistic from that, & that was 25 years ago. Use your common sense.
Nature is definitely scary sometimes if that is what actually happened to these gentlemen. Love these stories Rusty!!!! I am from Wv so that one kinda hit home a little bit. Tyfs God bless you
Hey Rusty, I just wanted to say keep up the great work & also Mt. Hood is in Oregon... To all, never hike alone & take plenty of food, water and personnel protection(sidearm). You never know whom or what you will run into in the wilderness... BE SAFE!!!
That desert out near Barstow/Victorville is too disorienting. Every time I go out there, or to Joshua Tree, I am reminded of how easy it would be to go off trail and get hopelessly lost.

Unbelievable and very mysterious

Wouldn't be as fun though as going with a buddy or two. In a club it would have to be with some you got to know fairly well.
Often the group disappears, as was the case in one of these stories. Or, they “get separated”! We find that so unbelievably impossible.
groups sound good. how many can you get in a given notice? realistically
Great to see you Rusty!

When I was younger I'd dream of one day visiting all the famous parks in the U.S. Now that I'm alot older, there's no way I'd go camping in any one of them! something is def going on and I'm almost certain alot of the park rangers are aware of it and some are hiding stuff from the public. It's like all those horror movies have come to life!
I used to love to go camping. After an experience I had back in 95 I quit going.
@@bicentensol Spill the Tea! 🤠
What did you experience back in 95 ?
Thank you for recent missing cases ,old ones were getting old,but still amazed how they are all still not found with out a trace or clues
Who's searching for them?
I was back country camping in the Shenandoah Mountains National Park (Virginia) in the early 80's with my brother. Early in the morning I heard something walking in the woods not far away and was cracking some really big branches as you can tell by the loud cracks it made. My brother in the other tent, heard the same thing. Whatever it was, was walking closer and closer to my tent, where eventually it was right outside my tent making these grunting and growling noises. I told my brother it was right outside my tent, not but a couple feet from my face where I was sitting. Then, James suddenly yelled out...."I have a gun and I will shoot you!!" Just then, whatever it was started backing up away from me thank God. As we compared notes later, we both thought it odd that it seemed that it was walking on two feet, as we knew the sounds of wildlife when they walk through the woods and it wasn't a bear or a dear, etc. To this day, we will never know. But whatever it was responded to my brothers hi pitched voice and then walked away, or it understood English. Who knows. To this day, I don't think I would be here telling this story, if my brother hadn't been with me. I haven't back country camped since that day. Listen to this man's intelligent advice. A lot of people disappear in National Forests and National Parks who are on their own or get separated from their friends
That experience would change a persons mind to hike or camp alone, still why do people do it then their gone with out a trace,thank god for your brother, I'd never ever SLP in a tent,no protection there from any animals omy
Great that you put photos of people first and then photos of park's name. And great you made the breaks between cases longer. 👏 Your reading is good, incl
its speed (tempo)
I would recommend to work on the melody, the first half sounds sometimes kind of robotic. Then you became more natural in reading. That is my impression. :) I like your videos and wish you the best.
Thanks again, Rusty! I love these compilations. I have a suggestion, can you do a compilation of college town cases? Look into "Missing 411-A sobering coincidence" for cases.
Hello folks ! It's Rusty West time !
Welcome back Rusty we always look forward to your latest updates and cases❤
Love your work
Rusty, thanks so much as always for the videos. You be safe wherever ya roam, okay?
Hi Rusty i love your videos thankyou for the content keep it up and i hope you are well.Thanks from England uk!
Hey Rusty!
You can’t go out into that vastness ..someone ,or something is waiting for you to just dare do it…but don’t do it.
It will get you, n you only…cos all that matters out there is you at the time.
Thanks rusty ..will never get tired of that music..it evokes the sadness of all thoses poor souls that didn’t stand a chance.
If it is a person that’s doing it ..then they will be judged by a realm far higher n greater then them..and it will hurt when he catches up with them..God sees everything.
I love this channel. Keep it up Rusty
Thanks so much for this upload absolutely love these
Great video. Thank you for getting the names of the missing out there so they’re not forgotten.
Ive been listening almost all missing persons episodes from Rusty. Its utterly strange. And that those cases remains unsolved for years.
Wow, Julian Sands? That is a shocker.
I live in the city below Mount Baldy. The weather here for the past six weeks has been crazy winds, unpredictable rain, and cold overnight. We went to Baldy Village (almost 4,200 feet) in November: There were patches of snow and it was cool and dry, the kind of day where one might forget to stay hydrated or not have adequate gear for the late afternoon temperature drops. As I have gotten older, staying warm is more of a challenge.
Easy to say don.t hike alone, but... sometimes, only option you have to do the things you love.
Exactly! One person wrote to go in groups. How many people know agroup of people available to hike at any given time.
The problem with taking this line of thinking is - you could become the next missing person. The choice is yours. We all have to reconsider things we like to do. Especially as we get older. I liked to mountaineer in my 20’s & 30’s. Gave it up after a trip to Snowdonia in North Wales when bad weather came in very suddenly & rapidly. I may well have been a statistic from that, & that was 25 years ago.
Use your common sense.
It’s interesting that most of the missing featured have photos of them hiking
Ah! Good point!
Heyyy Rusty thanks for sharing 💞
Thanks Rusty! your the best!
Thanks Rusty.💯
Hello Folks! Thank you Rusty! 💕
Two words that absolutely 💯 DO NOT go together: solo hike.
Prayers for these individuals and their loved ones
Ohh man! I hope Julian will be okay. This and the rest are just unbelievable.
Nature is definitely scary sometimes if that is what actually happened to these gentlemen. Love these stories Rusty!!!! I am from Wv so that one kinda hit home a little bit. Tyfs God bless you
These stories are just so sad. Thank you to all the ppl and sweet dogs that search and rescue. Thank you all
Great video, Rusty. Thank You!
Thank you!
❤️
Hey Rusty, I just wanted to say keep up the great work & also Mt. Hood is in Oregon... To all, never hike alone & take plenty of food, water and personnel protection(sidearm). You never know whom or what you will run into in the wilderness... BE SAFE!!!
Feb 10, 2011 Rick Gentry was found 200 yards away from belongings found , volunteers training a cadaver dog found him under 2 foot of snow
I lived in Barstow for 3 yrs. Victorville is not far. I would not go out in that desert for any reason.
That desert out near Barstow/Victorville is too disorienting. Every time I go out there, or to Joshua Tree, I am reminded of how easy it would be to go off trail and get hopelessly lost.
Thanks Rusty your the best
Thank you Rusty
