In this episode of Silverline Films: Behind the Frame, we sit down with legendary Alaskan hunting guide Cole Kramer at the Wild Sheep Foundation's Sheep Show 2025 in Reno. Cole shares wild stories from the field—moose hunts gone wrong (and right), close encounters with bears, and the grueling reality of guiding in the harshest conditions on Earth.

We also dive into Cole’s work with adaptive athletes and veterans, including his incredible experiences guiding Jonathan Blank, a double amputee Marine veteran, on extreme hunts that push the limits of human resilience.

From hardcore gear testing for Sitka, Yeti, and Montana Knife Company to packing out 64-inch bulls, this episode is packed with raw adventure, gear insights, and stories of grit, perseverance, and giving back.
