There’s a certain magic that unfolds on a first trip to the Boundary Waters. Memories are made, experience gained, and often the trip ends with some stating the following: “When do we get to come back?”

In episode 21 of the WTIP Boundary Waters Podcast, we hear from Minnesota resident Sarah Kermode and her friend Joe Schille, who is also from the land of 10,000 lakes. Sarah and her husband Andy took the lead on a summer trip in 2019 with four of their friends, including Joe, who was making his first trip. We hear about their trip that started at an entry point off of the Gunflint Trail.

To kick things off on this episode, however, new Boundary Waters Podcast Host Chelsea Lloyd shares an interview with well-known (who are we kidding… famous!) paddler Becky Mason. Becky is an artist, canoe instructor and the daughter of paddling legend Bill Mason. Chelsea traveled across Canada to interview Becky for this episode, and it was well worth the journey to hear from this paddling icon, literally at her kitchen table.

It’s September in the Boundary Waters! Bring on the new season…
