Summary

Over a year ago, I went out to the western high country to make my second attempt at getting an elk. My new friend, Robb, joined me. Along the way, we had insightful conversations about hunting, family, faith, and the healthy aggression that pushes each one of those things forward. After the hunt, holed up in a hunting lodge with a fire raging behind us, we turned on a pair of smartphones and recorded an unplanned podcast. Just like I did, I think you’ll find Robb’s wisdom, aggression, and attitude both refreshing and challenging.

My elk hunt was turned into a 3-episode mini-series on YouTube, The High Country Hunt. All episodes are streaming here.

0:51.5	out to another state in the Western High Country for attempt number two.
0:56.2	And this time, I wasn't alone. A video crew tagged along. They documented the whole thing for

1:20.3	When he's around, he's the thing that's the top of the food chain. He has an uncanny and
1:26.5	impressive way of taking down wild game. Right after
1:30.3	expedition, I sat down with him for a conversation about all things hunting. There's,
1:37.5	there's something primal about seeing your meal alive and then taking its life to feed yourself.
