Welcome to Episode 194 of Inside The Line: The Catskill Mountains Podcast! On this episode, Tad and I chat with Julie McGuire and Jaime Kennard about their new documentary called Queen of the Catskills — a wild ride through skiing the High Peaks and surviving to tell the tale. We also talk about unprepared hikers turning New Hampshire, local breweries teaming up for good (and for beer), and how you might be polluting the trails just by being your normal hiker self.
