Hiker Sessions - "Ranger Don"

Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of HikerSessions. Thank you for tuning in to the podcast. I believe you will find today's show particularly engaging.

In this episode, we are joined by Don Bolduc, or as he isknown in the FarOut app, “Ranger Don”. Don is a seasoned law enforcement officer from Maine who served the public in various roles for 33 years such as Chief of Police, County Sheriff, patrol officer, dispatcher, and security guard. Having grown up in Millinocket near Baxter State Park, Don always knew that upon retirement, he wanted to be involved with Baxter.

Since 2018, Don has served as a Ranger at Baxter State Parkand is currently stationed at the Abol Bridge Campground Store. There, he interacts with both northbound and southbound hikers embarking on or concludingtheir Appalachian Trail through-hikes.

Let us now welcome Don Bolduc.
