Western hunting is as diverse as it gets from pursuing coastal Blacktails or pigs in central California, Antelope on the open plains of Wyoming, Roosevelts in the western units of Oregon or chasing bugles in a drainage somewhere in Colorado.

I sat down with Evan Bannock to talk his Alaskan caribou hunt, the planning, the prep, the hardships and the proverbial icing on the cake. What's different than any other pod talking Caribou... Evan's attitude, determination and his desire to inspire through this story. Not to mention not many if any at all have hunted the Brooks Range from a wheel chair! Mid way on his goal to the Super 10 and mapping out his super slam, the best you can map that aspiration out, the man is showing us what is possible. Enjoy the episode!

I met Dustin and Dane the gentlemen behind Hardside Hydration at the 2022 Hunt Expo via Heather Kelly's Founders Speaker Series and had to get my hands on the Swig Rig once I saw it. For me it solved a couple of problems and well I absolutely love small home grown business. After some time in the field running it and putting it through the paces it got my proverbial stamp and fits right into my "kit" fulfilling a need. You can find Hardside on social and the web via the links below. Enjoy the episode!

Continuing with the live recordings from Western Hunting and Conservation Expo in Salt Lake from the Initial Ascent booth! I had the honor and pleasure to sit with Paul and Dee Servey. We get into the spiritual and ancestral connection to the land and animals through hunting, the healing we find in our pursuits, what's available on the mountain if we are willing to seek it out. We may get a little "hippie" but this is our connection to the pursuit, its an eye opening and beautiful walk in wild places. This series has so much to offer in insight and perspectives, enjoy the episode!
