Following is a list of potential people who live in the Northeastern Minnesota region and who have significant Wilerness experience and/or influence. In selecting your person to interview, be sure to follow some guidelines:
1. Plan your interview questions ahead of time - write them down.
2. Call the person well in advance (1-2 weeks minimum) to arrange an interview time.
3. Meet at their convenience.
4. Be sure to be on time, dress appropriately presentable, and thank them for their time.
5. You should spend around 1 hour with them. If your interview looks like it will go more than 1 hour, ask them first if they have the time to go more than and hour. You need to be the time keeper, not them.
6. Confirm the person you wish to interview in class so we avoid duplication.

ENJOY!!
