Peak Northwest is undergoing some change this spring, with a brand new co-host just in time for the busy travel season. Replacing our original co-host, Jim Ryan – who recently left for Seattle – is Vickie Connor, a videographer for The Oregonian/OregonLive who also works on the Peak Northwest video series. On this week’s episode, we get to know all about Vickie’s background, her interests and what kinds of adventures she’s excited to tackle this year. As a recent transplant to the Pacific Northwest, there’s a lot for her to see. Here are some highlights from this week’s show: Vickie didn’t learn to love the outdoors until a little bit later in life. What kinds of travel and outdoor excursions does she enjoy? Dog-friendly adventures are a huge part of her Northwest travel plans. Vickie takes us through her Pacific Northwest bucket list. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
