In this inaugural episode of our People of Bristol Bay series, I catch up with Tia Shoemaker. Tia grew up in the Alaskan bush and is a second generation hunting and fishing guide for her family’s business, Grizzly Skins of Alaska. She shares her experiences growing up in the Alaskan bush, hitchhiking across three African countries to hunt and fish and everything in between.
