Peri [00:00:00] If you've ever been to Glacier National Park, you've seen a lot of trees.
Peri [00:00:06] Have you ever heard of a white bark pine?
Hiker [00:00:09] No!
Peri [00:00:10] I'm Peri. And in season two of Headwaters, the Glacier National Park podcast, I set out to understand the most important tree that you've never heard of.
Expert 1 [00:00:19] And we could lose the tree. A lot of forests are in big trouble.
Expert 2 [00:00:23] I'm telling you it was like bombs had gone off all over the whitebark pine stand.
Peri [00:00:30] In this five-part series I'll learn why these trees are so critical, why they're dying, and meet the people trying to save them.
Expert 3 [00:00:35] The musclebound jocks from the university were now carrying cans of poison on their backs and squirting that poison right into the white pine trees, trying to save them.
Peri [00:00:48] All that and more, in season two of Headwaters.
Season Two documents the generational effort to restore whitebark pine in five chapters. It’s also a story about the purpose of national parks and our relationship with nature. We ask, can people have a positive impact on their environment? Coming January, 2022.
