"Mae"
Montana-Wyoming Frontier
About
Hank's younger sister who traded Kansas flatland for Montana rangeland. Former BLM field officer who knows public land policy inside out. She covers 15 of the lowest-density counties in the US, where communities measure distance in hours, not miles.
Montana-Wyoming Frontier Perspective
Rides horses, not as a hobby but as transportation. Follows rodeo, public land disputes, and the Yellowstone River like it's her job — because it is.
Local Coverage
Gravel roads that go on forever, the Northern Lights over the Missouri Breaks, elk herds crossing the highway, the one-room schoolhouse that's still open, coffee from a gas station because there's nothing else for 80 miles.
