Doing Stuff Outdoors-45
In April 2008, Kimber Sider and her horse Kat are embarking on an incredible adventure. They’ll ride west from Nova Scotia with a goal of the Pacific Coast of Canada, 6,000+km and 5-6 months down the road. Her driving inspiration is Barbara Kingscote’s 1949 journey from Mascouche, Quebec to Vancouver, British Columbia. Our feature interview on the show is with Kimber Sider.
Bob Cartwright from The Outdoors Station sends along an interview he did at the recent Canoe Expo in Stoneleigh in the UK with one of the owners of Ocean Paddler Magazine.
Gary talks about the post he found in the Lighthiker’s World blog listing some favorite outdoor podcasts including SNEWS Live, the Dirtbag Diaries and DSO.
Podsafe music this episode from The Wyrd Sisters, aptly named ‘Canada’s First Ladies of Folk’ by international music critics.

Hi Gary,
what an interesting journey from Kimber! Thanks for this piece and also thanks for the nice mentioning of my blog in your podcast. I feels strange if you all of a sudden hear your blog being mentioned from someone across the ocean.
For me the song was o.k. I don’t mind music in a podcast as long as it has some relationship to its content. And it can even broaden your own musical horizon!
