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 we are joined by prolific white mountain hiker, Eric Todd Sweet. Eric is well known in the area so we asked him to join us so he can share some stories of his hiking adventures in the Whites and beyond. We share some awesome things to do with a spotlight on Western Maine and we also discuss the recent close call a hiker had on Mount Madison.
