The Disappearance of Lynn Simmons

Lost Boy

A 3-year-old boy wanders away from camp in the Uinta Mountains, leading to a panicked search. Uinta Triangle host Dave Cawley covered the case of Benjamin Myrup's disappearance when it happened. In this bonus episode, Dave revisits the case years later to learn what Benjamin's parents experienced behind the scenes of the search.

Ute Words

The word "Uinta" is foreign to many people, but not to native speakers of the Ute language. Larry Cesspooch, a member of the Ute Indian Tribe of the Uintah and Ouray Reservation [https://indian.utah.gov/ute-indian-tribe-of-the-uintah-ouray-reservation/], shares what the Uinta Mountains mean to himself and his people. Uinta Triangle host Dave Cawley also asks for Larry's help in learning the meaning of other Ute placenames, which are critical in helping keep the Ute language from becoming extinct.

The Disappearance of Lynn Simmons

Late in the summer of 1940, a government surveyor named Lynn Simmons vanished near Lamotte Peak in the High Uintas. Crowds of searchers scoured the mountain wilderness but never found any trace of Lynn. Over time, his case was forgotten by all but a few relatives. In this bonus episode, Uinta Triangle host Dave Cawley connects with Lynn's family to bring his memory back to the forefront.

Listen Now: Stolen Voices of Dole Valley

We’re excited to share a new podcast from KSL Podcasts & Lemonada Media: Stolen Voices of Dole Valley, a nine-part series about survival, injustice, and the fight for answers. It’s the story of a predator you’ve likely never heard of — one who prowled the Pacific Northwest in the 1970s, when hitchhiking was a rite of passage for many young people. Some young women managed to escape him, but their warnings were ignored. One survivor’s account was dismissed by police, leaving the man free to kidnap and murder others. Police believe this killer was responsible for far more than the two murders he was convicted of, and decades later, families and investigators are still determined to uncover the truth. With new DNA testing and relentless hope, loved ones are refusing to let their daughters and sisters be forgotten. After you listen to this preview, search for Stolen Voices of Dole Valley in your favorite podcast app to hear the rest of the series.
