Today, Angel Collinson and Jonathan discuss an experience that every single one of us will deal with at some point in our lives: grief. It’s a topic that we don’t talk much about in outdoor media circles — how to process it, how best to help others who are grieving, etc. And yet, for reasons that are rather painfully obvious to the outdoor community, we clearly need to.
