This episode has a brief introduction and then over an hour of listening to a river flow over a rapid in the bottom of a canyon lined by wildflowers while songbirds sing. Use this to fall asleep, meditate, or to help focus you at work. No music, no ads, just the sounds of nature for free. This episode is dedicated to young Olsen Harlander, who was born while this recording occurred.
Just a good conversation with a couple young fellas who get after it in the mountains. We talk trapping, mule deer, elk, whitetail, and a bit of nonsense in between. Check out more from them on the show they just started called The Middle Class Man on Spotify.

Anthony Dooley from Life Below the Surface has guided spearfishing for three decades and he makes the short list of people I’d trust with my life in situations like this where ...
Ticks. Nobody likes them. They carry and spread diseases to people, wildlife and pets. This spread is made worse by misinformation about tick ecology and behavior.

One of my favorite forms of animal art is gyotaku, the centuries old process of making prints using ink, fabric or paper, and the natural textures of a fish. Brandon has been practicing this art form for 16 years and it’s now his full time job— people from all over the world send him fish to make his prints. This episode is all about the combination of fishing, food and art. We all like that. Follow Makai Impressions ...
Tyler Hauk guides elk in some unique terrain which mixes the deceptively flat rolling short grass prairie of eastern Oregon and the unreasonably steep canyons that border them. He also used to take cruise ship tourists on trips to view bears and you’ll want to hang out until the end of the episode to hear that one. Trust me. Follow his Instagram here.
Silencers continue to be misunderstood. I sat down with the folks at silencer central to answer some of your questions: what’s the process to get a silencer? How long does it take? How do I pick one out? What are the benefits? Any downsides?

Marthe is the legend you’ve never heard of. She skied from the sea ice to the South Pole on Antarctica. She skied across Greenland and the Northwest passage, dragging her gear behind her in a sledge, sleeping among the broken ice pressure ridges and the occasional polar bear with a WWII rifle for protection. Before any of that she was an Arctic Recon Ranger for the Norwegian Army. She is kind, thoughtful, humble and ...
The folks at Federal developed a proprietary cartridge over the last six years that just launched. It propels a 170gr 7mm bullet at 3,000 feet per second from a 20” barrel. I sat down with Eric Miller from Federal to talk about this ammo. We are going to see more and more of these high pressure cartridges in the future. The physics and engineering behind it are fascinating. Enjoy
Talking about one of the oldest IPA'a in the Pacific Northwest from the legendary Terminal Gravity Brewery, living in a van down by the river, and spending your last dollar on a Winston fly rod.
