National park

corner of the Pyrenees.

Joining host Aaron Miller today are two local experts, David Poissiello from the Centre del Romanic de la Vall d'Aboi and Xavi Llaminiana from Aigüestortes i Estanya de Sant Morici National Park, who'll share how heritage and landscape come together in this corner of Catalonia.

Ah, looking forward to it.

Let's get started.

So it's like every day it's a surprise.

So, Xavi, let's talk a little bit more about what you do.

You work with the national park.

It's the only national park in the region.

Look at look at Teddy Roosevelt.

He created the national parks, et cetera, et cetera.

And I'm always curious as to, well, what else do Republicans know about Teddy Roosevelt? And would they still would they still embrace him as a hero? Because he was also a trust buster.

He was also he was also very pro regulatory agency.

But is it possible that the ghost of a missing woman may be trying to help solve her disappearance or at least help locate her remains? We ask that you keep an open mind and consider the following case.

Back in episode number seven of our 10 Unsolved National Park Disappearances series, we brought you the story of Sandra Hughes.

To recap, 54-year-old Sandra Johnson Hughes of California was last heard from on June 26, 2020.

Sandra had embarked on a solo camping trip in the Sierra south of Yosemite to escape from the current pandemic.

Jimmy Jam, how you doing? There are a lot of people missing on the West Coast.

Like...

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, it's the most visited national park in the country.

It sits right on the border, almost equidistant there between, or straddling Tennessee and North Carolina.

Now, you've got to have some restrictions.

You can't just have people say, oh, I want to build in the National Park, and away they go.

It's got to be regulated.

But like we said at the start of the show, with the demise of Q, Veronica Mayne, and everyone else, you can over-regulate, you can over-burden, and eventually people put their hands in the air, I'm giving up.

And yeah, you know, like you, I have a morning routine and it starts with meditation and then it usually goes to a walk or exercise.

I live beside the National Park here in Gordon.

And then, you know, I actually write down three things I'm grateful for in the last week.

24 hours and then think, what good can I do in the next 24 hours? And that's my reset.

No.

National Park.

Which was Labor Day weekend? Yeah, it was Labor Day weekend.

So that weekend up there in Washington, they rounded up some families.

At a national park or river or something.

Yeah.

The forest rangers fucking called the ice on them.

Now, of course, none of this has been proven, but there's definitely a reoccurring human idea that somehow these natural portals could actually be as a gateway to a different dimension.

Now, one of the biggest portals to be known as a gateway or an area of disappearance is not just the Bermuda Triangle, but National Park.

Yes, national state parks or national big masses of lore, especially because so many people have gone missing in the wilderness.

And there's this like very important experience.

Her case remains unsolved.

The eerie part is that these people somehow end up in this triangle of wilderness where But it has a fascinating catch because a lot of people believe that somehow they get like sucked into a portal or the reason why they aren't able to find them is because there is some type of paranormal mystery.

Now there's also the national parks and missing 411.

So this is where the portal theory really exploded.

If you are close and can walk to your school or just like stand on your front step or wherever there's a patch of sunshine for you for 10 minutes.

It doesn't have to be a walk around the National Park, although that's beautiful.

It just needs to be outside in some sunshine.

Or if you don't have any sunshine available, even on a cloudy day, just outside in the morning light.
