Crime Off The Grid
Crime Off the Grid is a podcast about true crime stories from our National Parks and other wild places.
All of our guests and co-hosts, bring years of experience working in National Parks, National Forests and other wild places. Our guests are rangers, investigators, prosecutors, victim specialists, and other first responders who have dedicated their careers to justice and safety in places off the grid.
Join the hosts and me where we discuss cases, listen to Ranger Tales; real rangers telling real stories that you just can't make up, and...report news and commentary from wild places from the Crime Off the Grid Newsroom!
Take a listen to our Intro first so you have a good idea what we're talking about!
Crime Off The Grid
Yosemite; Jump and Run
A BASE jumper makes an illegal jump in the pre-dawn morning from El Capitan. When he landed, park rangers were waiting for him and things took an unimaginable turn. Hear Ranger Bonnie describe that day, and another event that occurred just 3 months later with a similar outcome.
