Hibernating Bears (or do they?) and Reflections of an Alaskan Icon, Vic Fischer
The Big Alaska Show

Rick Rydell Green, Special Assistant to the Commissioner of Fish and Game, talks about hibernating bears - or do they?! Always informative and entertaining.




Then, with the passing of the last surviving delegate of the 1955 Alaska State Convention, Vic Fischer, we visit with his wife, Jane Angvik, and author, Charles Wohlforth to share reflections.

Check out our podcast interview with Vic and Charles: "A Farewell and Tribute to Vic Fischer" about Vic's book, To Russia With Love: An Alaskan Journey.
