With sheep season around the corner, we wanted to repost this episode with John Barklow from early 2022, as it's full of great information, advice, and hard lessons learned.

If you have a backcountry hunt planned this August or September, or even later into the fall, the insights John brings to bear in this episode are invaluable. Even if you listened to this when we first released it, it's worth another listen to make sure you're keeping your edge.

With over thirty years of hunting, climbing, and skiing experience, twenty years as a professional instructor, and fifteen years in equipment development for backcountry use – when Barklow gets on the mic, it is always worth the time.
