Ep. 631: Backcountry Skier - Malou Peterson Apr 23, 2020

Show notes

After an injury that kept her from skiing, and pretty much doing anything, for two years, Malou realized that her love wasn’t for racing on skis but for adventure in the wilderness. This ignited her passion for backcountry skiing in some of the most beautifully rugged places on Earth.

After healing up, Malou was in pursuit of the best snow and backcountry skiing in the world. She left her small town in Sweden for Revelstoke, British Columbia, which is now her home.

Join us for a conversation about snow, mountains, injury, surfing, and adventure.

Ep. 629: Leaving Alaska - Update - Kristin Knight Pace Apr 16, 2020

Show notes

Not many people would go to Alaska during the winter, completely alone, to take care of a team of sled dogs to get over a recent divorce. However, that's exactly what Kristin did. That toughness eventually led her to become one of only 29 women to complete both the Iditarod and the Yukon Quest 1000-mile sled dog race.

Kristin is now remarried and has officially started a new journey, motherhood. Up until recently, she also works as a wilderness planner for Denali National Park and also wrote a book about her experiences, This Much Country, which made the New York Times summer reading list in 2019. It can be found following the link below or pretty much anywhere else you buy books (she asks that you support your local bookstore).

However, today’s episode is not about her life in Alaska. It’s about her and her family making the enormous change to restart their lives in Texas. Listen in to hear about how continuing to live in Alaska would have led to compromise and how a complete change in identity is sometimes the best direction to go.

Ep. 628: Climbing Through Adversity - Melissa Strong Apr 13, 2020

Show notes

Being a restaurant owner during this Coronavirus outbreak is not a walk in the park. However, facing seemingly insurmountable challenges is nothing new to Melissa. Today she tells us her story of overcoming a terrible accident that nearly completely jeopardized her love of climbing. She still deals with trauma, but she has learned to use it as fuel to continue moving forward. I hope it inspires you, no matter what you’re going through.

Ep. 626: Stories From 34 Years as a National Park Ranger - Dallas Koehn Apr 06, 2020

Show notes

Dallas Koehn is a retired US Park Ranger having worked for the National Park Service from 1964 to 1998.

During his career he worked at Yosemite, Death Valley, Grand Canyon, Grand Tetons, Shenandoah, Yellowstone, Lassen Volcanic, and Glacier National Parks.

Since he retired in 1998 he has been doing volunteer backcountry hiking patrols at Glacier NP every September.

Ep. 625: Legendary Freeskier - Mark Abma Apr 02, 2020

Show notes

Mark is so easy to talk to about all sorts of topics that you forget he’s an iconic freeskier with numerous awards under his belt. In 2005 and 2007 he won the Powder Video Awards for Best Male Performance and is well known by his amazing freeskiing skills that are captured in film through his nearly two-decade relationship with Matchstick Productions. In fact, he’s been featured in every single MSP film for the last 18 years, as well as several Warren Miller and Poor Boyz movies.

It hasn’t gone to his head, though. He started mogul skiing before switching to park competitions and chipping a career out over the years. He says it has humbled him and led to a certain amount of contentment over the years.

He’s incredibly down to earth and always eager to talk about health, longevity, and his used veggie oil-fueled adventure truck. He joins us from his home near Whistler, BC.
