Outlandish

This week on Outlandish we're continuing our discussion on grazing and public lands. Outlandish is going on a cattle drive! We'll hear from a long-time buckaroo, plus recreational users whose hiking overlaps with cattle country. We'll spend the episode on a grazing allotment on the Boise National Forest. Giddyup, Outlandish!

This week on Outlandish, we're diving into a two-part series on grazing and public lands. We're handing the mic off to Monica Gokey, who's taking us out to the great sagebrush sea - to a place where the relationship between ranchers and the land they run cattle on is so intertwined that people can hardly remember it any other way.

On this bonus episode of Outlandish, I dig deeper into glaciers with an amazing geologist: Dan Seffeirt. He explains "ice patch archaeology" and how glaciers impact our ecosystems.

On this episode of Outlandish, we bring you one of the most incredible stories I've ever heard. It all started with our adventure to see a glacier full of extinct bugs, that sadly no longer exists.  My fascination with this concept lead me to someone who made one of the most significant archeological finds.  Download this episode today to hear this amazing tale of friends on a hunting trip that discovered history.
