Jon Peterson
Jon is a veteran skier doing his 45th Birkie in 2025. He is a retired science teacher and coach still working in education and enjoying year-round activities to stay active and fit. He loves the outdoors, woodworking, pickleball and managing the huge 1 km trail 'system' at his cabin near Lac Courte Oreilles in Wisconsin.
Jon is an experienced podcaster with a global audience for his education podcast. So, he thought he could help give voice to Birchleggers who each have unique reasons to come back to northern Wisconsin every year to take on the Birkie challenge.
The Birkie has changed so many lives and there are many stories to tell. The Birch Legacies podcast is an attempt to capture and share some of those stories.
