25. A Spirtual Journey through Poland Creek with Evan Stafford and Leif Anderson

Tales from the Cripps

Do we become more humble with age? My guest Leif Anderson says he has, but humility did not come easily. Let's go back to a time where a young and cocky Leif set out with a crew from Ft. Collins, CO to conquer the Arizona kayaking scene, in one short weekend.
This podcast was inspired by Leif and Evan's dueling blog entries from 2010, which you will not want to miss:

Just to prove how cocky Leif was in his early days, and because it's one of my good memories of running the Big South, here's my 2009 Big South video where Leif became the star of the show as the only paddler that day motivated to fire up the big ones.
