In this episode,  I'm joined by Kyle Lapointe. Kyle is a leading member of the Vermont chapter of Backcountry Hunters and Anglers, and works as an emergency medical technician in the New England area, working with the DHART (Dartmouth Hitchcock Advance Response Team), as well as living on a working homestead in southern Vermont. Kyle and I discuss the current goings-on of the Vermont and New England branches of the Backcountry Hunters and Anglers organization. We chat a bit about the projects they have going to maintain and help people more easily enjoy wilderness management areas, the value of finding a community that recreates in the outdoors the same way as you, and a whole lot more. We recorded this over zoom, while both of us had relatively slow internet connections, so apologies for any issues with the audio.   Links: Backcountry Hunters and Anglers New England Chapters of BHA Dhart Program SOTF's Family Bushcraft Week
