It's hard to pinpoint one of them, but in preparation for this interview, you know, I've been doing a little reflection on just my own story with public lands and my connection to them.
Olivia MillerGUEST
So I, my first thought goes back to my childhood, really my first, some of my first memories on public lands were camping in with my family at Horseshoe Recreation Area in Tucker County.
Olivia MillerGUEST
It's a really lovely campsite and some family friends were camp hosts there while I was a kid.
Olivia MillerGUEST
So I spent my summers running around that campground and playing in horseshoe run and yeah, very special memories to me personally.

EliHOST
So how did you become interested in the outdoors, Olivia? I'm assuming growing up where you did, it was just kind of part and parcel of your lifestyle.
Olivia MillerGUEST
yeah and in a very real way i grew up in tucker county specifically in hendrix and if you've ever been to hendrix it sits at the base of the blackwater canyon so you have the blackwater river coming in to meet the dry fork which creates a black fork and then on to the cheat river so I was surrounded by National Forest on almost every side.
Olivia MillerGUEST
My front porch growing up was looking out at McGowan Mountain and just being everywhere I went was National Forest.
