Ritchie Falls Resort's Kyla Lee Owl -- Bears and Lakers
In episode 145 of Blue fish Radio Lawrence Gunther sits down with Ritchie Falls Resort’s co-manager and guide Kyla Lee Owl to discuss her passion for hunting and fishing. A dedicated bow huntress and angler, Kyla walks Lawrence through the process of sustainably managing the 1,000 square kilometer bear hunt area deeded to the Resort by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry. Hear why Kyla believes women hunters are far more likely to bag large game. Kyla talks about her life journey circling back-around to her origins where she’s most comfortable – in the wild. And now, Kyla and her life partner Matthew Owl are working hard to transform Ritchie Falls Resort into an indigenous-inspired eco-tourism year-round operation.
Up-coming Blue Fish episodes #146 and #147 feature Matthew Owl, the other half of this dynamic duo, where we learn more about how the Sagamok Anishnawbek First Nations community and the town of Massey are benefiting from the revitalization of the Resort.
