S E5: The Northlander Predator: What Killed Jordan Grider in the Boundary Waters?

S E5: The Northlander Predator: What Killed Jordan Grider in the Boundary Waters?

In this cinematic episode of MR. HANSoN Podcast, Jeremy Hanson investigates the mysterious death of Jordan Grider, a 26-year-old wilderness guide who entered Minnesota’s Boundary Waters in February and never returned.

Official reports list exposure and undetermined animal activity. But internal memos, field notes, and firsthand testimony tell a different story — one filled with ambiguous bipedal tracks, selectively disturbed gear, arranged personal items, and silence from officials who have spent decades in search and rescue.

Why were wolves publicly ruled out so quickly? Why did multiple responders transfer or retire shortly after the recovery? Why were tracks flagged as “ambiguous bipedal impressions” and then buried in administrative limbo?

Jeremy follows the pattern through:

• Indigenous Anishinaabe teachings about ancient wilderness agreements

• Firsthand accounts of upright predators in the Superior National Forest

• Trappers documenting deliberate concealment behavior

• Campers describing tent zippers moving in the dead of winter

• Recovery personnel who describe the scene as “positioned” and “instructional”

Is the Dogman legend merely folklore? Or are there older wilderness laws still being enforced?

This is not a sensational monster story. It is a meditation on humility, forgotten agreements, and the possibility that the North Woods are not empty.

If you believe wilderness is just scenery, this episode may challenge you. If you believe ancient land carries memory — this episode may confirm what you’ve always suspected.
