Project Mindfully Outdoors

What question keeps following you?

Sometimes a question stays with you through an ordinary day. You notice it again on a walk, in the car, or when the house finally gets quiet.

The Honest Outdoors follows questions about identity, change, wilderness, and the lives behind familiar frontier stories. In the pilot, Mike Martin explains the road that brought Project Mindfully Outdoors to this work.
