Into The Wilderness with Byron Pace

#144 Conor Knighton: National Parks, John Muir, bison, Alaska & finding yourself


Listen Later

I am joined by Conor Knighton, who has just released his book Leave Only Footprints, chronicling his journey of discovery through the National Parks of North American. After learning about his background in TV, we dig into the origins of the National Parks, starting with John Muir and Teddy Roosevelt, and go onto discuss bison, hunting caribou, the rare pupfish, the recovery of the channel island fox populations and speculate as to why people move to Alaska. It is a story of self-discovery as much as it is about the experiences. If you are even remotely interested in the outdoors, this is an interview not to miss.
