Ten Minute Travels
Ten Minute Travels is Alaska inspired and revolves around those who have either lived or traveled to Alaska. Our guests are ordinary people doing extraordinary things and our travel topics range from helicopters to motorcycles to bicycles to anything else you would consider travel.
Concept:
We want to take you on ten minute journeys that are inspirational, educational and just darn interesting, as you journey through your own busy day.
Goal:
We want our listeners to learn at least one travel trick, good or bad, in each episode.

Episode 73: Tia Shoemaker: Raised in the Alaska Bush - The Lost Art of Wilderness Skills
“Hard work, low pay." So read a classified ad that Phil’s dad handed him years ago. Phil somehow passed the interview process and found himself employed as a packer on the Alaska Peninsula. There he met our guest, Tia Shoemaker for the first time. Tia joins us to talk about growing up in Bush Alaska, twice-yearly trips to the grocery store, jammed rifles, smoking airplane engines, thoughts on pink camo and three clean jokes.
Are the skills required to live and move in wild places deteriorating? Tia talks about map reading, reliance on communication devices and mental fortitude.
