Nick Tyler spoke with Shelby Shaw.

Erl Barsness moved to Montana from Minnesota nearly 60 years ago to work for the Lolo National Forest. Later as the News Director for KULR-8 Television in Billings he met Conrad Burns, and when Conrad started a state radio network known as the Northern Broadcasting System in 1975, they decided that Erl should produce a daily outdoor show for NBS that they named “The Outdoorsman”.

Later, Erl was the State News Anchor for the Network, and then spent several years with KGHL Radio and the Intermountain Network, plus was a Realtor, and worked with Kampgrounds of America. In 1992 Erl Barsness began producing the daily outdoor radio show, known as “Shadow of the Rockies”, and for the next 30+ years he brought outdoor news to radio stations across Montana and Wyoming. In this interview with Taylor Brown, the two reminisce about Erl’s long career in broadcasting.
