You are surrounded by forest just about everywhere you go in the Catskills. The forest is a kind of infrastructure, one that's been shaped, used, and managed, for thousands of years, by humans. This episode features forest historian Mike Kudish, watershed forest stewardship educator Jessica Alba, forest management professor René Germain, and DEP forestry program manager Charlie Laing.

If you're taking this tour in person, please play this episode anywhere that is forested. Please visit ⁠walkingthewatershed.com/podcasttour/listen.html⁠ to download a printed map, transcripts, accessibility info, and other important information.
