Episode 33Have you ever stumbled upon the remnants of a tragic event while exploring the great outdoors? Picture this: a mysterious plane wreckage on Wright Peak in the Adirondacks. As I delved deeper into the story, I uncovered the haunting truth of an Air Force B-47 Stratojet bomber crash from 1962. The silent memorial of lives lost still lay scattered on the mountain peak, a chilling reminder of the fragility of life.
