Welcome to the Sounds Like a Search and Rescue Podcast! Also known as SLASR. Join an experienced search and rescue volunteer and his friend as they discuss all things related to hiking and search and rescue in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

This week, in an attempt to attract a younger demographic we interviewed a friend of the show, Caroline about her recent time living in Hawaii. She will break down some of the hiking activities she enjoyed during her 8 week stay in Honolulu and talk about some of her activities visiting the other Islands of Hawaii. She will also break down some of her memories of early hiking in NH and might even reveal some details about what it was like being raised by a maniac.  In addition to Caroline we have a couple of short history segments, crowds at Tuckerman Ravine, recent hikes, pop culture talk, our theory about all of us living in an AI simulation, and recent search and rescue news.
