Host and Managing Editor Rob Drieslein and Editor Tim Spielman begin the show recapping Memorial Day Weekend, then break down new food-hanging rules (and penalties) in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Then MaryBeth Beseke joins the program to talk about how she makes soap from bear fat and how she and her local legislator worked to legalize the sale of her natural product. Bob McGillivray, the land protection director from the Trust For Public Lands, then joins the program to talk about the new Moon Valley Wildlife Management Area northwest of Rochester. Tim Lesmeister helps Rob wrap up the show with chatter on all of the above topics, plus a new North Dakota paddlefish record and bears (not bad news) in Japan.
