Shoulder Season with Semi Colon

Mark "Semi Colon" Scott drops into the studio from his home in Jasper National Park to talk trail (and more!) with Doc.  The Canadian school teacher shares some stories from the backcountry, including some dicey situations out there with his better half, previous JFM Pod guest, Brigid "Scrambles" Scott.  Tune in and hear about proper response technique for bear encounters, Zed Packs, C-Level water crossings, the Great Divide Trail, a LASH in the American Northwest, Shoulder Season, and the unusual naming technique for small Saskatchewan towns. For reference and explanation: "Shoulder season is the months between the peak season, usually during the summer months, and the offseason in the winter. In this case, the autumn months would be considered shoulder season."
