If you’ve been channel surfing and caught some footage of a beautiful waterfall or an epic vista that looks like it was filmed in Western North Carolina, you may have been watching Van Burnette’s television series, The Trail Explorer. The outdoors show appears at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday nights on URTV Channel 20. Van also writes articles for local newspapers such as the Black Mountain News and the Asheville Citizen-Times. We talked to him recently about being from WNC, being outdoors, and being on TV.
