Hunt Backcountry Podcast Archive — The Experience Project

This podcast was recorded on our Alaska caribou hunt, as we spent a day stuck in camp due to a flooded river. Steve, Mark, Justin, & Jeff discuss how they each killed a caribou bull in the days before this conversation. They detail how each encounter happened, what they did right, and what they did wrong.

If you are a backcountry hunter, you should own, carry, and use trekking poles. Period. In this podcast, we discuss why backcountry hunters should use trekking poles, what to consider when purchasing trekking poles, the mistakes that people make when using them, and how you can use trekking poles for more than hiking.

A backpack hunter's headlamp needs to balance weight, performance, and efficiency. In this Hunt Backcountry Podcast episode, Steve & Mark discuss the unique demands of headlamps for backpack hunting, the headlamps we have used, and what headlamps we will be testing and reviewing moving forward.

In this Hunt Backcountry Podcast episode, we discuss how we find, filter, and carry water on extended hunts. Few things can affect a backpack hunt more than water, so it is critical to have a water management system that is versatile, reliable, and effective as you live in the backcountry.
