Welcome to the Gritty Podcast. I am your host, Brian Call, and I have my brother, the Gritty

Bromine, behind the camera. How are you, Brent? I'm well. Thank you.

Today's podcast is with Mark Livese from Tree Line Academy, tree line pursuits, and we

are used, a theories and the theory behind planning your hunt and the type of areas you're

going to go to, your limitations physically, mentally, emotionally, and so on. Some of

this stuff to lay that foundation. So then we can get right into later, what are you looking

for? What are elk finding features? What do elk like? Where do you find them? What
