<description>&lt;div&gt;America's national parks promise peace and beauty - but they also hold some of the country's darkest mysteries. In &lt;em&gt;Murder on the Trail&lt;/em&gt;, bestselling author Michelle Kaminsky investigates disappearances, serial killers, and unsolved cases hidden beneath the redwoods, canyon walls, and mountain switchbacks we think of as safe.&lt;br&gt;
From the Yosemite Park Killer to Gary Michael Hilton and the vanlife tragedy of Gabby Petito, Michelle digs into why these wild spaces become hunting grounds, how isolation turns deadly, and why federal land can complicate justice. With a journalist's precision and a survivor's empathy, she reveals the thin line between wilderness and danger.&lt;br&gt;
In this episode, Michelle joins me to explore the beauty, the horror, and the truths buried deep in America's most iconic landscapes.&lt;br&gt;
