About this listen
Nature doesn’t care how prepared you are.
Stretching over 2,000 miles from Georgia to Maine, the Appalachian Trail is a test of endurance, willpower, and survival. But for some hikers, the true challenge wasn’t the mountains — it was the sudden fever, the twisted ankle, the blood loss, the vanishing companion. In Medical Mysteries – Appalachian Trail, you'll find 20 true stories of medical emergencies, disappearances, infections, injuries, and unexplained deaths that occurred on America’s most iconic trail.
A hiker survives 26 days lost in the woods before dying just miles from safety
A veteran is killed in a random trail attack
A woman coughs blood after a venomous bite
Rescue teams fly into rugged backcountry to save injured hikers from death by exposure
These are real people, real events, and real medical outcomes — some miraculous, some tragic. Whether you’re a backpacker, armchair adventurer, or true medical mystery junkie, this collection will have you gripping every page.
