Grab your hiking boots! This week, we're headed into Idaho, where the mountains are tall, the lakes are deep, and the canyons are full of secrets. We explore the legend of the Pumwa, Idaho's witch-woman from Nez Perce origin who lures unwitting victims into her lair. We dive deep into the mystery of Sharlie, an unknown creature in Payette Lake that has won the hearts of locals and skeptics alike, and then go full tinfoil hat as we dig into the Idaho Batholith and it's rumored underground secrets of government cover-ups.
This episode makes us question what is real, what's imagined, and whether Idaho knows more than it's letting on. The Gem State has secrets - and we want in on them!
