In this episode, I’m joined by Tok area resident Mike Cronk. Mike is a retired teacher and avid trapper and hunter. He’s been serving as an AK congressional representative and is now running for the State Senate. We talk about wolf trapping, sheep hunting in tennis shoes, bear baiting, and why it’s important to vote. Enjoy!

In this episode I’m joined by Hunter and his son Jett Knezovich. Hunter had hunted elk and mule deer all his life in Wyoming and had been a Tundra Talk listener since before making the move to Fairbanks. We talk about how things were growing up compared to what it’s like living and hunting in Alaska now, and get to hear about Jett’s first caribou. Enjoy!

In this episode, I’m joined by retired Fairbanks police officer and detective, Peyton Merideth. Although he’s recently moved, Peyton spent most of his life here in Fairbanks, and is a passionate outdoorsman. We talk about his book My Turkey Has Hypothermia, Officer, some of the major crimes and experiences he dealt with, and wrap it up with plenty of hunting talk. Enjoy!

If you want a copy of his book, you can pick it up at Mark Knapp’s shop or Barnes and Noble in Fairbanks, or by getting in touch with Peyton through Facebook.
