Welcome to Episode 196 of Inside The Line: The Catskill Mountains Podcast! On this episode, Tad and I sit down with adventurer, writer, and author Erik Schlimmer for a wild and insightful chat. Erik dives into his mission to summit the seldom-visited Catskill 200 peaks, shares stories from his time as an Assistant Forest Ranger and his quests of paddling major rivers from their source to the sea! We also talk about New York’s sneaky proposal 1 and take a moment to spotlight Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month.
