Hunt Backcountry Podcast Archive — Exo

We continue our Behind the Scenes at Exo Mtn Gear podcast series with Jake Havlicek. As a teenager, Jake started building packs part-time in the summer. Now, several years later, Jake is a full-time employee and an integral part of the Exo team.

Patrick and his wife sold everything they owned, left the Northeast, and headed West without a specific place or plan in mind. Months later, they settled in Boise, Idaho. Patrick walked into Exo HQ and began building packs part-time.

Origins: the point or place where something begins, arises, or is derived. Ethos: the characteristic spirit of a culture, era, or community as manifested in its beliefs and aspirations. Exo Mtn Gear Co-Founder, Lenny Nelson, joins Steve & Mark to discuss Exo's origins and ethos.
