Todd Hofflander - Hells Canyon Wilderness - Idaho

September 24th 2010, 39 year old Todd Hofflander joined some friends on a multi day hunting trip in the remote Idaho wilderness area called Hells Canyon. As an experienced hiker, Todd was well equipped to spend multiple days in the backcountry and had been on trips like this before. On the 4th day of the trip, Todd experienced knee pain and decided to split from the group. This would be the last time anyone would see Todd until his remains were discovered a decade later. Join us this week as we discuss the disappearance of Todd Hofflander.
