Listen to the legends and lore of the Paul Bunyan Scenic Byway.
Through the generous support of KLKS 104.3 FM Radio of Breezy Point, the Paul Bunyan Scenic Byway Association was able to professionally record local people telling stories of everything from the development of walking and biking trails to working in a resort kitchen in the 1930's to famous explorers who mapped the Whitefish Chain and even a true story about cows drunk on moonshine.
Introducing the thirty-seven minute podcast and woven throughout is the burly voice of Paul Bunyan, performed in bold Bunyan-style by local voice artist, Dave Skyberg.
The Paul Bunyan Scenic Byway Association is very grateful to the following people who recorded these wonderful stories about our area: Bill Habein, Jon Henke, Addie Johnson, Irene Myres, Ray Nelson, Steve Rudek, Betty Ryan, Bob Bundgaard, Lynn Scharenbroich, John Wetrosky.
