This week on The Mountain Life, author (00:48) Joanne Tubbs Kelly sheds light on an important, often taboo, topic — medical aid in dying. Joanne talks about her memoir, Walking Him Home helping my husband die with dignity, which brings her very personal story and journey as she helped her husband die.

Then, (25:38) Connor Ryan, a Protect Our Winters (POW) athlete and skier, joins the show. He hails from mixed heritage - Lakota and Irish. This informs his lust for wide-open spaces, big mountains, and traditional ceremonies.
