Wtip Boundary Waters Podcast

Charlie Pavlisich likes to explore the wilderness in all times of year, but has a particular fondness for winter travel, especially in late winter when the fishing is good and conditions are ever-changing. In this episode of the Boundary Waters Podcast, Charlie tells the story of ice skating 16 miles to Ottertrack Lake in a year of very little snow. He also shares what it's like to catch brook trout in spite of tricky ice conditions after significant snowfall. And in keeping with his role as naturalist at the Wolf Ridge Environmental Learning Center, he also fills us in on what is happening with birds, wolves and even bugs, during the late, winter season.
