On this episode, we bring you a guest story from the podcast Outlandish, a show that focuses on stories from our public lands.
The story is about a remarkable discovery that happened in the wilderness of Canada. It takes us behind the scenes on the hunt of a lifetime, and looks at the fascinating things we can learn about our past by exploring the places where glaciers have melted away.
In addition to the story, we bring you an interview with Liz Townley, the mastermind behind Outlandish. We talk with her about her show, and about the broader effort to get more Americans involved in shaping the future of our national forests.
Carolyn McDonald adores trees. She even spends time pondering what trees would say if they could talk.
But she’s not the typical outdoorsy type; the very idea of camping gives her the shivers.
On this episode, Carolyn shares her story. She takes us from rural North Carolina to the streets of Paris, and explores what it’s like to love nature in a manner that defies society’s expectations.
