About this episode
Today Jason Maz joins the show. We discuss everything from neurodivergence, native bee populations, and canoe portaging at Wilson Mesa to the challenges of the Rayado Trek Coordinator role and the operational processes that take place during a Philmont Search and Rescue. Jason lives in the mountains of Vermont and works as a contracted ecologist, University educator, and economic pollination researcher.
