Daredevils of the Wilderness

Join Boer as he recounts stories of these audacious adventurers who imperiled their lives daily to bring supplies and civilization to isolated northern communities.
Read here about the men and women who flew the northern skies to bring not fame to themselves, but food, medical supplies, and mail to communities inaccessible because of harsh landscape and weather. They braved the elements to fly folks into inaccessible regions and bring much-needed supplies to the people of northern Canada -- Wop May, Punch Dickins, Doc Oaks, Fred Stevenson, Vi Milstead, Chuck McAvoy, Con Farrell and many others.
