Chik-Wauk Museum and Nature Center
Bonnie Schudy is Campus Director at the Chik-Wauk Museum & Nature Center on the Gunflint Trail, a place rich with both cultural heritage and natural wonder. Bonnie has spent more than thirty years on the Gunflint Trail, paddling the Boundary Waters and Quetico, fishing through hard and soft water seasons, and witnessing the challenges and progress of the Gunflint Trail over the last few decades.
We'll talk about the transformation of Chik-Wauk from a beloved wilderness resort to a vibrant museum, the role of the Gunflint Trail Historical Society, and what it takes to call this 57 mile long driveway to the boundary waters, home.
