Backroads Bill Podcast Ep 34: The Abitibi Canyon: A Sudden Rise and Crash

Bob Hunter who is more commonly known as “Abitibi Bob” joins the podcast to chat about his time growing up in Abitibi Canyon.
Bob goes into growing up in an isolated environment with few of the amenities that kids his age would have access to. Bill and Bob also discuss the reason the Abitibi Canyon blew up in popularity but within a decade found itself with barely anyone still living there.
