Brian and I went to high school together. Naturally we split ways after graduation. We were acquaintances in high school and I had no idea he was a hunter. Moreover, I had no idea he likes to use freaking falcons to hunt with. Brian is an interesting, intelligent guy and learned quite a bit about using falcons to chase down small game.

Quinn was an avid outdoor adventure. Rock Climbing, mountain biking, you name it and she did it. However, after a climbing accident her world became drastically different. That didn't stop her from doing what she loves though.

A former customer of mine commented on a FB post we made about Bigfoot. Upon further inquiry, I discovered him and a friend are avid Bigfoot believers. There is no better way to end the month of October than with a good Bigfoot story!

Lanita Witt, Suzanne Willow and their daughter Brooke were looking for 40 acres of rural property on a sparkling day on December 31, 1984. They had selected the Ashland school district as their new home-to-be, and had a realtor's map in hand as they drove up a snowy Shale City Rd. Driving toward the mapped parcel, they looked down into a beautiful valley with a big barn and little house under 4 feet of snow, and thought about the family that lives there summers. They visited the mapped parcel, and three others, and went back to the view of the valley at sunset. They went back again twice the next day ... and noticed a small 'For Sale' sign at the base of Shale City Rd. Tuesday, January 2, 1985, they were in the realtor's office before returning to Napa, California, and found that the parcel for sale was the valley they had all fallen in love with, and that it was 440 acres! Magic was definitely afoot. Two weeks later an offer to buy had come in on the property; they returned to Ashland, skied into the valley with the big barn and the little house, and put in their own offer. The rest, as they say, is history.

In the last of the Halloween spooky stories series, Zach takes us to the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains where he talks about the ghost of a murdered woman and a Cherokee legend called Spearfinger.

Kayaking, food trucks, aerial yoga and... Couch Surfing? Myra, Sandy and their daughter Kristen operate a kayak livery in Greenup, KY called Dragonfly Outdoor Adventures. They have created a unique and beautiful recreation destination in their corner of Appalachia. Their story is awesome. We should all strive to live a little more like these three women.

Brad and Zach spent some time remembering their favorite camping stories

Brad started 12 Hike 2 years ago. He just wanted to get people together once a month for a hike, promoting outdoor recreation in the Southern Ohio area. Now that he got Zach involved, they are going to take 12 Hike as far as possible!

While scrolling through Instagram, I came across an account called chiefcrappieraider. He was using a BAITCASTER to catch PANFISH! It blew my mind. Little did I know that he has more passion for panfishing than anyone I know. Ralph was a great guest and dropped a lot of knowledge on me and Sean about catching big panfish.

This weeks pair of Halloween tales involves vampires and little creatures that live in the mines of Colorado. Also, I spoke with Leah from the acting/drama group "LuneAseas". They are putting on a live action, hiking based play called "In The Pines" that explores some Colorado mysteries and scary stories.
