This week on the Regional Roundup, we hear why moose populations are declining in the region and why Wyoming’s annual moose count is such an important event. We also dive into the mountain West’s unique sport of skijoring, which combines skiing and horseback riding. Later, we hear how a mountain community is building resilience in the face of climate change. And we round out the show with best-selling author Terry Tempest Williams, who talks about protecting public lands and her new memoir, The Glorians. Tune into the Regional Roundup on KDNK.org every Thursday at 4:30 pm.
