At certain times of the year Frequency: The Snowboarder’s Journal publisher Jeff Galbraith (pictured above left) has been known to get up early, trudge out into the cold with his dog, and blast low-flying, web-footed birds from the sky with a 12-gauge shotgun. While we have no interest in doing the same, nor in watching Mr. Galbraith’s bird murdering missions live and in person, we do still enjoy reading about them.
In the May/June issue of the Sierra Club’s Sierra Magazine (whose Acting Deputy Editor just happens to be Steve Hawk (yes, that one)), Jeff has written touchingly about hunting in Washington State’s Whatcom Wildlife Area with his dog Dr. Gonzo Yellow Dog and friends in a story titled On Ducks, Jobs, and Farmlands Forever.
In the story he mentions his favorite flowering shrub (the alder), LEED-certified subdivisions, and former MBHC snowboarding badass and current Shell Oil employee Dan Donnelly.
Yes, it is a strange mix, but read it anyway.
