  • #91 Will Collins’ Irrepressible Spirit for Adventure and Outdoor Enthusiasm
    Jul 12 2024
    Some people have the outdoors in their blood. Will Collins is one of them. From the time he attended his first summer camp as a child, he felt drawn to the outdoors. In this episode, I talk with Will about his path from childhood summer camps in Wisconsin to multi-week expeditions in remote areas. In 2017, he paddled source-to-sea on the Mississippi River. I ask him how he planned for the trip, about the generosity of people he met along the way and the daily rhythms of a long-distance trip, and also about adjusting to life after the completion of a big expedition. The year after his Mississippi River trip, he paddled for 70 days on the Yukon River. He describes how that trip differed from paddling the Mississippi. Will’s love for the outdoors extends well beyond his own expeditions, so we finish with a discussion of his podcast, Buffalo Roamer Outdoors, and the guided trips he coordinates. Will’s enthusiasm for getting outside is infectious and may inspire you to get out for your own adventures.

    Hope you enjoy this Guest Post as Will joined Dean Klinkenberg on the Mississippi Valley Traveler Podcast.
