    Ep. 145 - Tom Aley of OUL - Exploring an Underground Ozark Cave (PART 1)

    We're visiting with the world's leading karst expert, Tom Aley of The Ozark Underground Laboratory (OUL) to discuss the importance of groundwater and its impact on human and wildlife health. We also dive into some of the craziest things Tom and his team have found in his cave...an endemic snail, some bear bones, and even a jaguar bone (just to name a few). Tom's friend and colleague Dave Woods also joined us for the conversation and took us down into the cave afterwards. We'll be back next week with Dave to discuss our findings on Part 2. Enjoy! In the Ozarks, people have always lived in rhythm with the natural world. Hunting, fishing, and living off the land, aren't just things we do, it's who we are. And though our lives are inextricably linked to the land we live on, we've never been more disconnected from it. So join us, as we travel across the region to bring you the voices of the Ozarks to deepen your connection with the land, sharpen your skills in the outdoors, and help you learn what it means to be an Ozarker.

Lots of hunters overlook the late season as a viable time to harvest a big buck (OR they just don't wanna brace the cold), but in Russten's experience its the best time to pin up some big antlers on the wall. On this episode we discuss late season deer behaviors, finding a spot on public, and finally Russten's personal blind hunting setup. Enjoy!
