#22 North Country Trail
Episode description
In this episode, we talk with two long-time trail volunteers about the North Country Trail (NCT). The trails are a place many of us have grown to love. Have you ever thought of the work that goes into creating and maintaining a long-distance trail? We are joined by Matt Davis who is the North Country Trail Regional Trail Coordinator for ND, MN, and WI. We are also joined by Zach who is a hiking advocate and long-time volunteer on the Superior Hiking Trail and now the NCT. We discuss their stories behind the trails and how they got involved in volunteer work. We also talk about the North Country Trail Arrowhead Re-route project and the logistics behind what goes into building a trail system. This episode is sure to leave you with a different perspective next time you are out on the trail. Maybe you will even find yourself signing up to give back to the trails you love or start a new family tradition!
