Tales of Terror Vol. 17

Friday, October 23, 2026 • Duration 47:32

We’ve all been there: in a tent, in the dark, in the middle of nowhere. It’s quiet, peaceful– until you hear a sound. Was it the wind? Your imagination? Or something far worse? True terror lies in the unknown. Welcome to our annual Tales of Terror.

Endangered Spaces: Ambler Road, AK

Friday, October 9, 2026 • Duration 01:06:20

In October of 2025, the Trump administration green lit the Ambler Road in Alaska, a proposed mining access road that would cut through 211 miles of pristine Alaskan wilderness in the Brooks Range, crossing over 3,000 waterways and could forever change access to subsistence resources in Northwest Alaska. In collaboration with More Than Just Parks, the Dirtbag Diaries presents a two part story. Karmen Monigold and John Gaedeke each rely on the southern Brooks Range for their livelihood and have joined a grassroots effort to fight back against the Ambler Road. A pair of young conservationists, Robert Lester and Ben Kaden set out to walk the proposed Ambler Road and experience the wilderness first hand. Protect the Kobuk and Defend Brooks Range are groups that oppose the Ambler Road. Arctic Mine Development Project (which relates to the Ambler Road) Comment Period: It's complicated, but Backcountry Hunters & Anglers has a great breakdown of the issue and Defend Brooks Range has a sign-on letter.

All Hands On Deck

Friday, September 25, 2026 • Duration 50:38

When Somira Sao and James Burwick were expecting their first child, they made a vow not to stop traveling-- and they took that promise to the extreme. In 2009, after two years of living in a van traveling around South America, they took their growing family and moved onto a 40' monohull sailboat. Four years later, they had navigated a de-masting off the coast of Chile, sailed around the globe, added more kids to the mix, and created a unique philosophy on adventure parenting.

The Shorts: Grizzlies and Rubber Bands

Friday, September 18, 2026 • Duration 33:05

We never know where our life’s important lessons will come from. After years of chasing first ascents in the PNW Cascade mountain, Cam Fenton stumbles upon a new focus for his mountain exploits: grizzly bears.

Mark Kenyon: Save Public Lands

Friday, August 28, 2026 • Duration 51:38

Mark Kenyon and Fitz Cahall may not appear to have much in common. Mark got his start in the outdoors at a family hunting cabin in the forest lands of Northern Michigan, and Fitz dirtbagged around the American West in the back of his Tacoma.

And Then What: Roadless Rule

Friday, August 21, 2026 • Duration 11:26

The Forest Service has proposed to rescind the Roadless Rule, which protects nearly 45 million acres of National Forest. These forests play a role in maintaining clean water and air, wildlife habitat and provide lots of recreational access for climbing, hiking, biking and paddling. Today, Tracy Stone-Manning, executive director of the Wilderness Society and former director of the Bureau of Land Management, joins us to talk about why Roadless Areas matter, the latest efforts to dismantle protections for our public lands, and how to write your best comment. The Wilderness Society has made it easy to add your voice to the discussion about the Roadless Rule. Comments due Monday, September 21st.

Winnebago Warriors

Friday, August 14, 2026 • Duration 48:45

“When we were living in a house, we were always compromising because we had the weight of a mortgage, of doing what we thought we should be doing,” remembers Kathy Holcombe. Until the day, she, her husband, Peter, and their daughter Abby moved into a Winnebago to travel and work from the road. “I want her to see that she can do that too: whatever her wildest dreams are, to chase them and not stop until they come true,” says Kathy. Abby’s dream? To kayak the entire 280-miles of the classic Grand Canyon run. But how does a 12 year-old arrive at a place where this goal is even conceivable? First, lots of kayaking. But, as in any sport, Abby must learn to walk up to her fears and pick them apart before deciding whether to go or not go. You can follow all of the Holcombes on social. Abby, Peter and Kathy!

Why Do Trails Exist?

Friday, August 7, 2026 • Duration 47:51

Trails are hewn from granite, carved into sandstone cliffs and engineered into our most iconic landscapes. Other times, they offer just the faintest hint of the passing of those before us. Either way, we often take their existence for granted. Today with the help of author Dillon Osleger we ask the seemingly simple question “Why do trails exist?” Read Dillon’s book: Trail Work Support comes from ⁠Oboz⁠: ⁠⁠Comment on the Roadless Rule⁠ by Sept 21 Kuat Racks Kodiak Find Kodiak at kodiakcakes.com or your local grocery store Ka’Chava Go to https://kachava.com and use code DIARIES for 15% off your next order.
