This episode tackles two perplexing missing persons cases that continue to haunt the Great Basin and Pacific Coast.

First, we investigate the disappearance of Kenny Veach, a popular vlogger who vanished without a trace in 2014. Kenny's online presence offered a glimpse into his life, but it also shrouded his case in a layer of mystery. Did his online persona contribute to his disappearance? We'll explore the leads, theories, and unanswered questions surrounding Kenny's case.

Then, we turn back the clock to 1978 and delve into the story of the Yuba County Five. A group of men on a weekend outing who mysteriously disappeared from the rugged mountains of Yuba County.  Extensive searches yielded no clues, leaving behind a trail of unanswered questions. Was it an accident, foul play, or something stranger?
