  • Quality northern Rockies content

    What a great podcast, interviewing local people from around the northern area really makes it interesting, inspiring and informative! As a hiker and backpacking who’s spent many nights in the Willmore this podcast only makes me more inspired to go on more trips. Keep up the great work!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 79- Radically Wild
Q: What was the hardest part about writing and publishing this book?
The hardest part was dealing with the publishing technicalities and learning the publishing world, which felt daunting yet rewarding as the project moved forward.
Ep 80- Let Nature Speak (Feat. Kevin Gedling)
Q: What is nature interpretation, and how does it differ from regular outdoor education?
Kevin explains that interpretation is about translating nature's language into engaging, audience-specific storytelling that connects people to place, with a focus on evoking curiosity and conservation rather than simply delivering facts.
Ep 73- Sunset Fishing on Long Lake (Feat. Jordo)
Q: What was your favorite part of the day?
The favorite moment was probably the methanol mud drags and the overall high-energy vibe of the derby area, which stood out against the quiet sunset on Long Lake.
Ep 115- Blood Axe: The Hero of Hinton
Q: Blood Axe, the protector of Hinton. Is there anything that the residents of Hinton can do to help you out, Blood Axe?
Yes, residents can support him by wearing spiky shoes and bringing an axe, effectively arming themselves to assist in defending the town.
Ep 82- Late Night Garage Chats (Feat. Jamie Merkel)
Q: Can you break down what it takes to train for something like Folding Mountain Ultra?
Training involves a mix of reading, prior endurance experience, and practical preparation rather than solely relying on books; in this episode they emphasized mental and experiential prep, plus proper hydration and gear thinking.
