Enjoy this replay of my conversation with one of my environmental heroes Doug Peacock. I was fortunate to meet Doug at an Earth First! Rendezvous in Idaho in 1988. I'm just finishing his newest book "Was it Worth It", from Patagonia Books. Doug and I talk about his many adventures, his love for wildness, and his current work to save the Yellowstone Grizzly.

Intro to Outdoors
My dad was a boy scout organizer. So he would go up to the woods and lead them and organize boy scout troops operated in the woods. And I would be too little to be a boy scout.
So I got cut loose to just run wild in the woods and catch turtles and hunt squirrels, whatever, everything. And that's how I grew up.
