This podcast is about learning how to have better backcountry experiences and understanding why spending time outside matters in the first place.
I have conversations with people from diverse outdoor backgrounds to learn from them and hear their personal stories. I cover everything from backpacking, hiking, hunting, conservation, and outdoor skills to the broader role the outdoors can play in our health, perspective, and everyday lives.
Thanks for listening!

In this episode, I have the pleasure of talking to Aaron and Doniell from Leave No Trace about how to interact with the wild places we visit. They blew my mind with the amount of science-based advice they provided. I really had no idea how much information I was missing and I'm sure you'll feel the same way after this episode.
