WTIP Boundary Waters Podcast show

Summary: It’s a mix of news, important discussion and wilderness adventure in this important episode of the WTIP Boundary Waters Podcast. Up first, host Joe Friedrichs travels back to the BWCA with Kevin ‘The K-man’ Kramer. Joe and Kevin travel deep into the wilderness, finding moose, solitude and many walleyes along the way. Also in today’s episode, host Matthew Baxley talks with Miki, aka ‘Tricky Miki' from Minneapolis. Miki is an artist, documentary filmmaker and host of the Minnesota-based Black Helpline Podcast. Matthew and Miki discuss access to the wilderness for people of color, in addition to challenges that some in the paddling community perhaps are not aware of when it comes to who is comfortable in the BWCA and why. The 2020 paddling season has started. Along with that, it’s a time of change, education and transition across the planet, including inside the BWCA.
