Many outdoorsmen, conservationists, do not want to see a massive copper-nickle mine carved into the headwaters of the Boundary Waters.
To better explain why, in this episode of the Outdoor Life podcast we interview two folks who have dedicated their careers to the Boundary Waters. The first is Dave Seaton, the owner of Hungry Jack outfitters. Seaton has been making trips into the boundary waters since he was a kid, and he’s been outfitting folks so they can make their own trips for more than three decades.
Then we’ll talk to Lukas Leaf, the executive director for Sportsmen for the Boundary Waters whose main mission is to ensure the protections around this wilderness area remain. Unfortunately, right now, it seems that Leaf and his crew have their work cut out for them.
