In This Episode -

Alaska may be one of the few [truly] wild places left in the United States, and while there aren’t any massive thru-hikes there (yet), the place is chock-full of wildlife, rugged terrain, hiking trails, and the highest mountains in the United States. Located in and near the Arctic Circle, it’s meant to be cold- so what’s happening up there that might be changing some of that raw, cold ruggedness?

Tune in to our chat with Alex Lee, Director of Science and Education at Protect Our Winters (POW) where we cover drunken trees, permafrost, caribou, polar bears, oil extraction, the roadless rule, the Forest Service shifts, grizzlies, and even the most rugged critter (in my opinion) out there, a wolverine.

Thanks to Alex and POW for being on the show.
