“From Field to Freezer and Trail to Treads: Winter Hits the Upper Valley”


Deer season’s in full swing, and this week on The Outdoor Edge, Gary Moore sits down with Bradford’s own Dave McLam, a longtime wild game butcher and Vermont wildlife reporting station. They’ll talk field dressing, tagging, and the rhythms of hunting season in our region. Then we gear up for the snowmobile season with the first trail report from Gary Lamberton of the Buckaroos, offering early insight into trail prep and riding conditions. Rounding things out, Lawrence Hayes steps in for Mark Breen with this week’s Outdoor Edge Forecast — because we all know weather makes the season.


📍 Recorded earlier this week.
