Lee Moldenhauer was raised in the rural community of Dapp, Alberta, and then went on to earn his Geology degree at the University of Alberta. His education and the experience he gained while prospecting in the Northwest Territories shaped the rest of his career and life. He spent four more seasons prospecting in the Northwest Territories, three of those working for mining companies there. He then became involved in the oil industry doing well-site geology. Lee's sense of adventure never abated, and he has remained an avid traveller throughout his life. Now retired, he splits his time between Alberta and Chicago, where his wife is still working. Lee and his wife have teenage twins, who grew up hearing about Lee's tales of living in the bush and were the impetus for him to share his stories with others. See less
