Welcome to Episode 223 of the Sounds Like a Search and Rescue podcast. This week we're joined by Dave, who's back with us and may or may not finally decide whether he's going public with his last name. We've got some follow-up on Great Britain versus the United Kingdom, more coyote talk as mating season ramps up and how not to get yourself in trouble, a little animal-track trivia now that winter actually showed up, and some positive feedback on Stomp's return.

We've got listener shoutouts, including some love for Dave's PSAs, a funny comment about Mike's snow sculpture on Tecumseh, updates on our Alzheimer's 48 Peaks plans — including a potential Mount Adams hike — and a look at what's been happening around New Hampshire with rescues on Camel's Hump, avalanche incidents on Mount Washington, a disturbing number of snowmobile press releases, and new technology being used in long-term missing person cases as we mark the anniversary of Maura Murray's disappearance.

Nationally, we'll talk about a K-9 finding a missing child during a bomb cyclone, fatal ski accidents out west and in Europe, and why this winter seems determined to remind people that mountains don't care about your Instagram plans. Plus, we've got gear talk, a dad joke, a music minute featuring Great Grandpa, recent hikes, future plans, and — in our main segment — Dave brings us the wild and surprisingly dark legend of the Silver Virgin Madonna, a New England treasure story that sits right at the intersection of frontier warfare, folklore, and wishful thinking.
