Summary

A young, adventurous couple embarks on a bold mission in 1928: to conquer the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon and claim two record-breaking feats. The newlyweds pilot a handmade wooden scow down the rushing waters, navigating rugged rapids and unpredictable weather. As their journey stretches on, they mysteriously disappear, leaving behind a boat filled with supplies and a puzzle that has haunted explorers, historians, and investigators ever since. Did they succumb to the canyon’s treacherous waters, or was there something more sinister at play? Clues and rumors have surfaced over decades, but the truth remains elusive. Join us this week as we explore the disappearance of Glen and Bessie Hyde.
