On this episode, we’re diving into the extraordinary Great Spine of Africa project, a daring set of expeditions under The Wilderness Project, founded by Dr. Steve Boyes. Our special guest is Johan van der Westhuizen, a private pilot, expedition manager, and researcher who takes us behind the scenes of life on expedition. From dodging hippos to navigating some of Africa's most remote landscapes, and even the occasional (and temporary!) loss of team members.

The Great Spine of Africa project is focused on protecting, researching, and exploring over 1.2 million square kilometres of African wilderness, with a particular emphasis on documenting the sources and watersheds of Africa’s mightiest river basins, including the Zambezi, Congo, and Okavango. Johan will share his incredible experiences working with the team in these remote and pristine environments.
