In this edition of Gus’ Wild Side, we’ll hear Gus’ thoughts on the natural world….and the possible costs of modern life. Gus’ Wild Side is a regular feature on WTIP. Gus writes about our connections to Nature as he explores wildness from the High Arctic to his own backyard along the North Shore of Lake Superior.
