Welcome to episode 2 of The Hike Files Podcast. This week I talk about a seemingly growing, and concerning trend of people ignoring what should be common sense guidelines while outdoors - like not petting wild bison. I look at some of the differences between three of the more popular Pennsylvania public lands - State Game Lands, State Forests and State Parks. Some kayak permitting information and a bigfoot warning issued by a Nevada County Sheriff's Office.
