Show Notes

It was the start of a perfect weekend in September 2009 when 61-year-old Melvin Nadel - black belt, seasoned bowhunter, and respected gym owner - set out on a hunting trip near Pecos, New Mexico.
While his friends ventured out, Mel stayed near camp. But when they returned before dark, he was gone.
His Jeep was locked. His gear untouched. Trackers followed his scent just a few hundred feet - and then it vanished.
No struggle. No blood. No clues. Just... gone.
Despite search efforts, no trace of Mel has ever been found. His disappearance remains one of New Mexico's most chilling mysteries, tied to whispers of foul play and the eerie legends of the "Pecos Triangle."
What happened to Melvin Nadel that day in the woods? And how does a man vanish without a trace?
Listen as we dive into New Mexico, the case of Melvin Nadel, and how to stay alive on vacation.
