If you enjoyed our Monumental episode about Esther Hobart Morris, the first woman justice of the peace, here’s another podcast that might be right up your alley. It's about South Pass in central Wyoming where Esther served as judge. The area has endured five booms and busts since Esther lived there in the late 1800s. And now, a new boom has come along...thanks to the popularity of some hiking and biking trails that pass through there.
Hosted and produced by Melodie Edwards, Modern West is a podcast that is documenting the evolving identity of the American West. Here's an episode called The Sixth Boom from the show's second season.
