## Resource

In today's episode, we’re traveling back to 1997, when Amy Bechtel set out for a drive toward the Loop Road, a scenic stretch of Wyoming wilderness. She headed toward the Shoshone National Forest, a place she had explored many times before. Later that day, when her husband learned she never came home, a search began that would stretch across miles of rugged terrain — and eventually into decades of unanswered questions.
