Hey all,
I’ve been really getting into blog posts discussing mysteries in the wilderness, such as the Death Valley Germans and the two Dutch girls who went missing in Peru. I love the feeling of dread reading about being lost in the backcountry and wilderness that I get, and I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for non-fiction about people going missing in places like the national parks and needing to unravel the clues of how it happened? Or, similarly, non-fiction about the wilderness/woods/nature and how scary it can actually be!

But also, I’m open to true crime in general. I really loved ”Blood Brother” and “Helter Skelter”!
