Ep. 299: Boundary Waters Recap: Tales from the Wilderness

Brandon Butler is joined by Paddle Don, Derek Butler, and Adam Voight to relive their unforgettable journey through Minnesota’s legendary Boundary Waters—without co-host Nathan McLeod, who sat this one out.

Guiding them through the adventure was special guest Scott Mackenthun, a seasoned fish biologist with the Minnesota DNR, who not only planned the trip but played a key role in helping the crew navigate the challenges of the backcountry.

From portage pain and campfire camaraderie to fishing tactics and wildlife encounters, this episode dives deep into the raw realities and unforgettable moments of remote wilderness travel. Packed with insight, laughs, and honest reflections, it's an inspiring listen for anyone who's ever dreamed of paddling into the unknown.
